OVERVIEW
Cavolo Nero Dark Tender Leaves with Warm Rich Green Flavour
A Fresh Item with Real Character
Cavolo nero has a striking look with long crinkled leaves and deep dark colour that hints at its warm savoury flavour. When fresh the leaves feel flexible yet firm at the stem with a gentle earthy scent. At Gardners Patch our cavolo nero arrives early each day which helps the leaves stay moist and full of life. It cooks quickly and brings a comforting richness to simple home meals while adding colour and depth.

Sourcing and Freshness
Cavolo nero needs careful harvesting and fast movement to stay tender. Our growers send it directly to our Gloucester Road shop which protects both flavour and structure. Once it arrives each bag is checked for leaf condition and freshness. Bristol shoppers often comment on how vibrant and lively our cavolo nero feels which is why it continues to be a popular choice among those who enjoy cooking with seasonal greens.
Storage Tips
Keep cavolo nero chilled and loosely wrapped. The leaves keep their flavour and colour for several days and cook best when used soon after purchase. Once washed, dry well before storing.
