Slow-to-bolt, succulent, crisp 4" bulbs delight the taste buds whether eaten fresh, grilled, or roasted. Slightly flattened bulbs deliver a pleasant anise fragrance and flavor, while citrusy-tasting leaves accentuate salad dressings, sauces, and marinades. Bolt-resistant plants hold better in the field, and bulbs have a good shelf life after harvest. For optimal flavor, harvest the bulbs when they reach about 4" in width before they produce a central seed stalk.
