Nope. It’s Brussels sprouts. Surprised???

It was during my s yr inward Uni, when I took a newspaper on Olericulture in addition to my lecturer had a session alongside us on local vegetable classification, in addition to she told us that this is Brussels sprouts. I thus asked her why is it non circular in addition to tight. She told me, it’s due to the weather. When the temperature is non mutual frigidity enough, fifty-fifty our cabbages volition non bring tight heads. And Brussels sprouts grow below 24C, existence the best at 15-18C, hahah, what create you lot intend the temperature inward Cameron Highland is??? Of course of education the Brussels sprouts won’t bring tight heads. Not long later that session, she brought us upwards to Camerons for a champaign trip, in addition to yeah, I saw them, sprouting from the sides of the stalk at MardiPark inward Tanah Rata. Yes, they don’t grow upright, but they sprout from the “armpits” of the principal plant’s leaves. One found tin yield lots in addition to lots of Brussels sprouts. And 1 only pluck the sprouts in addition to allow the principal found alive in addition to grow.


Lately the local brussels sprouts bring rounder in addition to tighter heads, mayhap they got a novel multifariousness that was modified for higher temperatures. And the novel ones were no longer every bit light-green every bit earlier every bit well.
You tin only tegument off the leaves 1 yesteryear one, in addition to if they are also tight, only spell the caput for stir fries.

Today, I don’t desire to create the green garlic stir tiddler alongside this, but I desire to tiddler this alongside “Foo Yue”, a fermented beancurd.
