Discover the delightful charm of Crambe maritima, also known as Sea Kale, a unique vegetable that thrives near the seashore. This cruciferous plant, depicted in Francesco Peyrolery's 1765 watercolor, adds a touch of the sea to your plate. Sea Kale's succulent leaves, reminiscent of Brussels sprouts, offer a mild, slightly salty flavor. Pair it with Calystegia sepium for a delectable contrast of flavors and textures. And keep an eye out for the Large White Butterfly, whose larvae feed on Sea Kale leaves, transforming into beautiful chrysalises.
