{"product_id":"tokyo-bekana","title":"Tokyo Bekana","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe first learned about this from a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.sustainablemarketfarming.com\/2018\/01\/14\/asian-greens-for-january-chinese-cabbage\/\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003eVirginia-based gardening blog\u003c\/a\u003e, in our quest to find a diversity of greens that grow well here. We now love Tokyo Bekana so much that we grow it every year, and it's become a household name among local gardeners, who also adore this plant for it's ease of growth, abundant greens, and versatile uses. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pale green, lettuce-like leaves of this baby Chinese cabbage are sweet and mild, never bitter or spicy. They are great in salad mixes, make a wonderful slaw, and can be bunched and used like a Chinese cabbage. You can pretty much sub this for lettuce and it's surely more nutritious since brassicas are nutritional powerhouses. They can be harvested quickly as young baby greens, or up till when they form very loose heads. These are a staple in our Florida cool season gardens!\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Working Food Seed \u0026 Merch Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46304251543741,"sku":null,"price":4.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0724\/1734\/5725\/files\/tokyobekana3.jpg?v=1777567541","url":"https:\/\/workingfoodseeds.org\/products\/tokyo-bekana","provider":"Working Food ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
