  • Kale = Kitty Litter Same Thing? I Just Don't Get Kale. in Cheap Diners I
    Kale = kitty litter Same thing? I just don’t get kale. In cheap diners I have encountered it as a flat leaf upon which otherwise marginally edible food is served. In this role I find it acceptable, often dark green, sometimes a hint of purple (anthocyanin) pigmentation and often a rugose texture – a functional, indeed a unique, napkin – but it is my understanding that we eat the food on the kale leaf, not the napkin itself. Not only have I encountered individuals who actually eat the kale napkin, but they buy kale and make smoothies – you do not want to share a home or any close contact with these people. Moreover, much to my surprise, some people, likely as self-inflicted punishment for misdeeds, actually eat a thing called the oven baked ‘kale chip’. I saw the kale chip in the store and my immediate reaction was revulsion, followed by confusion as to why green kitty litter was in the vegetable section of the grocery store. Is there anything positive about kale? No, not really, except that as a napkin or as an ornamental it is fairly attractive and grows robustly in almost any garden or climate with no insect pests or diseases. This should be an important culinary clue, that even insects, fungi and bacteria find it inedible. Kale is in the Brassicaceae family and remarkably, is that same genus and species, Brassica oleracea, as at least six other legitimate vegetables including collards, cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, Brussel sprouts and kohl rabi. You can make fertile crosses among these vegetables and a brave soul in England attempted to make kale edible, or as they hoped “trendy” by crossing kale and Brussel sprouts to produce the “Kalette”.

  • Kalette Phytoactives What Is the Whole Food Matrix?
    Kalette Kalette, also called Flower Sprouts or Brusselkale, is a unique cruciferous vegetable with leaves like kale, thick stems, and a purple-green color. The kalette plant houses many of the same nutritional and phytoactive properties associated with other cruciferous vegetables but with some key differences. Kalette is a concentrated source of plant-based choline. The prominent glucosinolate in kalette is glucobrassicin, the precursor to Indole-3-Carbinol (a metabolite ultimately metabolized to Diindolemethane (DIM) in humans). Dried kalette retains nutritional components, phytonutrients, and enzyme activity key to unlocking phytoactive potential. Eating kalette and other leafy green vegetables improves your food quality score (FQS). Phytoactives Chlorophyll Green pigment in plants with potential anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-bacterial activity Myrosinase Enzyme found in plant tissue that initiates conversion of glucosinolates to bioactive isothiocyanates Glucosinolates Sulfur-containing secondary metabolites mostly found in cruciferous vegetables, when activated by myrosinase from the plant or after ingestion by gut bacteria, associated with positive effects stemming from antioxidant activity such as cardio-protection and detoxification support GlucoBrassicin (2.628 mg)** Glucoiberinn (1.127 mg)** Sinigrin (0.535 mg)** Progoitrin (0.003 mg)** GlucoRaphasatin (0.004 mg)** GlucoRaphanin (0.008 mg)** GlucoNapin (0.001 mg)** Glucobrassicanapin (0.002 mg)** Glucoerucin (0.004 mg) ** Carotenoids Antioxidants with anti-cancer potential that may lower risk of macular degeneration Lutein (106.0 mcg/g)** Zeaxanthin (0.385 mcg/g)** Carotenoids Antioxidants with anti-cancer potential that may lower risk of macular degeneration Beta carotene (76.78 mcg/g)** What is the Whole Food Matrix?

  • World Vegetable 2015 Final Report
    Project Title: Identification of Crops and Cultivars of World Vegetables Project Number: FI 2013-0017 Final Report Applicant: Horticulture Nova Scotia, Blair House, Kentville Agricultural Center, Kentville, B4N 1J5 Project Leader: Kim Best, Prospect Agri-Services Project Cooperator: Dr. Raj Lada, Dalhousie Faculty of Agriculture Date of Submission: March 1, 2016 Identification of Crops and Cultivars of World Vegetables FI 2013-0017 Kim Best, Project Leader ABSTRACT A number of non-traditional crops were evaluated in successive plantings in 2 locations in NS, on mineral and peat based soils. Most notable after two seasons were ‘Black Magic’, ‘Red Russian’ and ‘Premier’ kale, ‘Hakurei’ and ‘Scarlet Queen’ turnip, watermelon radish, ‘Chioggia’, ‘Touchstone Gold’ and ‘Tanus’ beet, ‘Punto’ dandelion and ‘Summerfest’ komatsuna mustard green. Production was slightly earlier and yield higher in 2014 in general on peat based soil, due to higher soil moisture and temperature. In 2015 the mineral based soil crops were more comparable in yield. The availability of irrigation was likely a factor. Project Objective: To evaluate crop cultivars of vegetables considered world vegetables (not traditionally grown in Canada) on peat based and mineral soil. Materials and methods: Crops within this trial were established in 5 successive plantings in each of two locations on peat and mineral soil. Crops included curly and black kale, specialty salad turnips, colored beets, a selection of specialty brassicas including rapini, broccolini and sprouting broccoli and several others such as watermelon radish, fresh soy bean and scorzonera. Data collected included yield and quality parameters as per Canada grade standards (where available), farmer and researcher expertise and market requirements.

  • Wave 34, March 2016 Vegetables Tracked: Broccoli, Chillies, Corn, Green Peas, Kale, Leeks, Lettuce
    1 Wave 34, March 2016 Vegetables tracked: Broccoli, Chillies, Corn, Green Peas, Kale, Leeks, Lettuce This project has been funded by Horticulture Innovation Australia using the vegetable levy and funds from the Australian Government. 2 Contents. 1 Executive Summary 3 1 Tracker Ad-hoc Questions 13 1 Overall Vegetable Tracker 16 1 Broccoli 20 1 Chilli 40 1 Lettuce 60 1 Sweet Corn 79 1 Green Peas 99 1 Kale 119 1 Leek 139 1 In the Media 159 1 Background & Methodology 163 3 Wave 34: Executive Summary 4 Industry Insight. Over the past three years, the Harvest Tracker has shown us that consumer satisfaction, endorsement and interest in new varieties of vegetables has increased over time (1%, 4% and 10%, respectively). The importance of having vegetables available has similarly increased (13%) and we know that the underlying trigger across all commodities is the health benefits of vegetables. Why then, one might ask, don’t we consume the recommended amount of vegetables based on maintaining good health?! 7.0 6.5 6.0 5.5 Importance Satisfaction Endorsement Interest (New Varieties) 5 Industry Insight continued. As the key note speaker at the Sensory Consumer Science conference in Sydney recently, Professor Hans Van Trijp from Wageningen University in the Netherlands suggested that although health is important, a “new age” motivation such as this must add on to (not substitute) traditional priorities such as taste, convenience and price. As humans, we are heavily influenced by instant gratification rather than long term advantage, and we see this in the day-to-day choices that we make, regardless of the importance we say we place on health.

Black truffle and have been affected... so far anyway, and we are white alba truffle. Please contact us for price... working closely with our suppliers to ensure you won’t be disappointed! good volume of produce can come through. This is without thinking of the second issue we have with getting products from the continent! STRAWBERRIES We find it sad to talk about strawberries at this time of the year but we sell as much in the winter as summer!! What’s happened with those nice conversations... working with seasonal produce! Anyway, currently very expensive with two origins available. We feel that the Epyptian (250g punets) are much better in terms of quality (sweeter and firmer) than the Dutch (Egytian on the right). For that reason, we will send Egyptian as a standard, unless if you tell us otherwise!
