This reminds me of a time not so long.. When my grandma and grandpa used to make food out of everything home grown...and as a child I loved it.. Takes back you to the old time.. Even the songs too.. Thanks mate..
I must say, I've been growing rapini for about a decade. And having an Italian background, I must say, you do an excellent job and recognizing the stages of growth! Also, You are the first person I have ever seen turn broccoli rabe into a dip! It looks mighty delicious. Keep up the good work, and all the best, bud!
Hi Siloe! I love your videos! By any chance can you make a video showing how to do those movable cages, and cold frame? Also, could you possible start including the time you do the planting? I understand you do them with in a time span, but would like to know your times of doing things! Thank you, so much for your educational videos!
Question, mine is growing quite big leaves but no flowers, florets etc? What could I be doing wrong. I do like the leaves so I remove some and saute with garlic, red pepper flakes.
Thanks so much for this very informative video! Broccoli rabe is a staple in our home. We are of Sicilian decent and just sauté it in olive oil and garlic, occasionally throwing some cannelloni beans in :) What planting zone are you in? Do you thin your broccoli rabe?
Looks so good! Def gonna try this. My mom used to blanche them and it would take out some bitterness. But def one of my favs and I’m excited to grow something year
I don't know about broccoli Rabe but your video presentation and your music are amazing! When will we heal the troubles that we inherited? When will we share the food of the land? Real food for the body and soul.
I notice you made no mention of thinning, which sounds good to me. Honestly when I thinned the carrots......I replanted some of them since I can't stand the waste. It's unfortunate TH-cam won't let me post a picture of the awesome carrot success from using the cornstarch goo you demonstrated. They are delicious!
Yummy! That is an interesting recipe. We love broccoli rabe. I am getting ready to plant some. I am in a subtropical area so I think I still need the temperature to come down a few degrees.
How do you make those frames? I think you called them cold frames?? What number plastic are you using? It seems to me that that's a better idea than the greenhouses where we trying to work with in small spaces. I would love to know what you used for the plastic part
Personally I don't like very much that only-head-broccoli. In here too I don't find brocoli rabe that often. So I'm growing them myself ... My favorite recipe is stir fry ithem with olive oil and tons of garlic. Yummie!
Broccoli needs lots of sun and high nitrogen fertilizer and cooler temperatures. It is a bit more tricky to get right than other garden plants. That’s why I’m more of a kale person. It is low maintenance and high yield.
Interesting, I know you said you like it. But is the bitter so bitter that you have to acquire a taste for it as an adult. I planted the traditional broccoli this year. I took up a lot of space not much yield. What about making wraps and or burritos. Well thank you for the added knowledge you give us weekly. Also because of you I bought and use mortar and pestle. Have an awesome week
Not sure if you had it since you posted this. It is bitter but not so much that it’s difficult to eat. I do notice that cooking with fats tends to make bitter veg more palatable. So butter, oil or with a meat product on the side may help.
I've planted broccoli rabe and some of it is stringy and tough even though I harvest it young and before the flowers bloom. Hmm I doing something wrong? Please help!!!!
Thanks i think this is what im growing lol i forgot i don't remember planting anything that looks like broccoli lol its in a row so its not a weed :) i know my weeds pretty good lol not a weed But i don't remember anything broccoli lol maybe i planted it in the late summer fall and it didn't come up till now maybe Looking it up i found you my friend i had to check out your video on it you do such a great job on your videos
@@suburbanhomestead oh I've been watching you for about a year now but I don't think I seen this one till I just looked up this plant I still might have something else? But I don't know what My leaves look like broccoli but the flower heads are small it's not broccoli either lol I planted oriental greens Chinese cabbage And mizuna I don't think it's these Oh well I probably will remember sooner or later lol Much love xoxox keep up the great work on your videos friend
Nice video. Well done. I grew this and will grow it next year. I gotta say the recipe looks quite nasty. Lol. But I turned on notifications so I will be sure to catch your next video and odd recipe.
@@Fragrantbeard Yes, you are right.... fresh apparently is but not dried fallen off trees. I don't like using mulches much.... Thank you for clarifying it, appreciate your knowledge.
Question on growing broccoli rabe...my plants are tall, spindly & have small clusters of yellow flowers...after the tiny clusters open. How do I get them trimmed down to grow better and more healthy looking clusters? They are about 4 weeks old at this time and are almost 2 feet tall...searched online for DAYS and can't find any answers to this... Not sure what to do with them at this point...let them keep getting taller or trim? Leaves are still very small...
If they started flowering they are too old. If you are in the northern hemisphere, it may be too late to grow them at this point. When day length passes more then 12-24 hours they go to seed. If at that point they are still young and thin, they become spindly and don’t produce much. You either have to start them much earlier protected under glass or maybe plant in end of July for a fall crop. Give them a very sunny spot with lots of fertilizer. Brócoli in general is more complicated to grow than kale and collards. I prefer to grow collards and kale because they yield heavily and easily in a small area

I like that you announce commercials instead of getting interrupted. Great video!
Right? I find that so considerate and something I don't see a lot of TH-camrs do :)
So happy I found your channel. You are so multi talented.
Класс! Вы не только отличный художник, но и прекрасный садовод и Кулинар! БРАВО! ❤
This reminds me of a time not so long.. When my grandma and grandpa used to make food out of everything home grown...and as a child I loved it.. Takes back you to the old time.. Even the songs too.. Thanks mate..
Music got me... "when will we learn to feed one another"... got me right in the feels. So simple, why is it made so difficult?
Your my new "p allen smith" when I need a special place to go to and geek out on backyard gardening. I just LOVE your style! Change nothing
What an honor! When I was in high school, I looked forward to fridays when our local PBS station would air P Allen Smith's Garden Home.
10 minutes just went by just like that. Love the garden tips, music, and cooking lessons.
My nonna used to make me this as a kid. When I lived in italy I found the cime di rapa seeds and this is my first time growing it!
Thank you for such a beautiful presentation.
So nice of you
I must say, I've been growing rapini for about a decade.

The hippy music was a welcome addition. Thanks for the video.
Canticle for Eve is a gorgeous song! Love this kind of folk. Purchased on bandcamp ❤️

Going to plant some right now. I love the song too.
This was my first video with you. Thanks for all the hard work and all the info on Rabe. Also, Epic beard! Keep up the great work!
Welcome aboard! Thanks!
That cold frame is genius!

Really helpful video, I’m growing some myself this year.
Hello from Jamaica
Wow....your recipe sounds yummmy
I'll have to try it.
Keep up the good work
God bless you
I love broccoli rabe and want to try growing it in a container.

Came across this video by accident. Totally enjoyed it.
I'm happy you did! Welcome to the channel.
Não conhecia esse tipo de brócolis. Deve ser delicioso. E dá para começar a colher rápido. Vou testar essa receita com rúcula. Abraços Siloé.
Great job as usual! Thank you, Siloé.
gorgeous song!
Umm, love it! Nothing like trying new things. And they're fresh too! Thank you for the info and what you do!.,
I like to blanch Broccoli rob then put it in a hot skillet with butter, salt and pepper. Delicious
Wondering why u did plant along the fence,that would give you plenty more broccoli.
new music is good
Personally I don't like very much that only-head-broccoli. In here too I don't find brocoli rabe that often. So I'm growing them myself ... My favorite recipe is stir fry ithem with olive oil and tons of garlic. Yummie!
I think my raab/rapini is bolting here in Houston in early Feb. :( Can I still use it? How do I prevent the rest from bolting so quickly?

Man...you are awesome!

How many seeds do you apply in a row
My kind of party 😂 Also thanks for the video, I’m going to try broccoli rabe next year in my garden.
You could cover your frames with a temporary poly when it rains to keep your plants from drowning and from getting mildew until harvest time.
Dunno if I missed you mentioning it, rabe broccoli is actually a mustard not a cruciferous.
My favourite vegetable next to real tomatoes, basil, zucchini
Cime di rapa,buonissime.
mmmm ... it's mouth watering ...
I've planted broccoli rabe and some of it is stringy and tough even though I harvest it young and before the flowers bloom. Hmm I doing something wrong? Please help!!!!
Thanks i think this is what im growing lol i forgot i don't remember planting anything that looks like broccoli lol its in a row so its not a weed :) i know my weeds pretty good lol not a weed
But i don't remember anything broccoli lol maybe i planted it in the late summer fall and it didn't come up till now maybe
Looking it up i found you my friend i had to check out your video on it you do such a great job on your videos
Thank you very much and welcome to the channel.
@@suburbanhomestead oh I've been watching you for about a year now but I don't think I seen this one till I just looked up this plant
I still might have something else? But I don't know what
My leaves look like broccoli but the flower heads are small it's not broccoli either lol
I planted oriental greens

And mizuna

I'm surprised that he is using cedar branch needles as mulch over seeds... as cedar is very acidic...
The science doesn't bear that out.
