Veg supplies are a bit low at the moment and as the brussels are not big enough to eat,  I have been harvesting brussel tops.  They are delicious. 

Unfortunately I cannot remember what variety they are, any recommentdations of good varieties for harvesting hearty, tender tops ?

Haven't ever been reduced to eating mine, if you want a few Tundra or Ormskirk just call by, we haven't finished the summer cabbage yet (Paddy)!

What?  Ever???? :o You don't know what you are missing.  The bonus bit.

Eggsackerly, like the parson's nose and oysters :o

I'll give them a try then... would you recommend I start with the red or green ones?

It would be a shame to cut the tops just for a trial if they are not well formed like slightly open cabbages. 

And they do say that they protect the sprouts from frost? Not that that stops me!

Like everything else, DON'T overcook them!!
