First Early Purple Sprouting Broccoli

I picked the first Early Purp. of the year today. It was fantastic. I always forget how bad bought cabbage is until I taste the first Brocoli. This was incredibly sweet and nutty with it, with a little bitterness as we also ate some of the older leaves. There are plenty of sideshoots already forming to produce proper spears soon. I only picked the central shoots today.
