Tokyo Bekana is a type of loose-leaf Chinese cabbage with a mild, sweet flavor and a texture similar to lettuce. It's also considered a mix between Napa cabbage, bok choy, and lettuce.
Here's a more detailed description:
Appearance: Tokyo Bekana has light green leaves that are not tightly packed into a head like other cabbages.
Flavor: It has a mild, sweet flavor with a slight hint of peppery taste.
Texture: The texture is closer to lettuce than other cabbages.
Uses: It can be eaten raw in salads, chopped and used in salads, or cooked. The softer leaves can be used for confetti-style additions, while the stems can be cooked or enjoyed raw.
Growth: Tokyo Bekana is cold and heat-tolerant and can fill a greens gap in the summer when lettuce wilts.
