About this variety
Machine-translated, may contain errors.
You will find ‚Delikatess Blauer’ to be a proven, seed‑stable favorite with a blue violet over‑coated head and especially fine, delicate flesh. The medium sized heads stay long in the bed, without becoming woody, and can therefore be harvested as needed. A reliable classic for the spring and early summer replacement in the home garden.
You will find it fine spicy with a slightly nutty tone and delicate consistency. Raw or cooked, it is convincing, especially lovely when lightly sautéed in thin slices.
