Bimi®

A cross between varieties and flavours

Bimi - Product photo

The shape may be very similar, but it's not broccoli. Bimi® is a cross between broccoli and kailan, a leafy vegetable that is popular in China. This new vegetable is also known as asparagus broccoli. Bimi® owes that nickname to the long, thin stems that clearly distinguish the vegetable from regular broccoli. The name asparagus broccoli also makes sense in terms of taste: Bimi® is somewhat similar to both vegetables. The stems are firm and juicy at the same time.

Recipes & preparation tips

With an appearance and taste reminiscent of broccoli, Bimi® is suitable for many broccoli recipes. That being said, the unusual appearance and especially the delicate taste invite us to find more adventurous uses. For example, Bimi® works really well with sweet potato, for an oven dish with a difference. The oriental character of the vegetable works well in combination with noodles, as per the recipe on the EAT ME website. A quick rinse is all it takes to get Bimi® ready for preparation.
