‘Bimi’, as the new vegetable is called, is a hybrid of broccoli and curly Chinese kale. A spokesperson for Cultivar says the new vegetable has a flavour that is milder and sweeter than traditional broccoli and contains up to 10 nutritive substances, making it very beneficial from a health viewpoint.

Cultivar presented the new product to its customers and hospitality professionals at a gastronomy workshop held at the CETT Hotel and Tourism School of Barcelona, which featured the different ways of cooking and preparing it.
