Fall is the perfect time to try the different varieties of broccoli that are available in farmers' markets and specialty food stores. Romanesco broccoli, an Italian heirloom variety with a beautiful apple green head, may appear to be a new variety of psychedelic broccoli or cauliflower, but it has actually been enjoyed in Italy since the 16th century.

Romanesco

1 pound(s)

Fresh sage
