Grown for its bright colour, as well as its culinar yuses, this is perhaps the ‘Chilean beet’ of Vilmorin-Andriuex. To many growers it is less romantically known as red chard, but it is certainly pretty in the vegetable garden. Unfortunately, the colour is lost during cooking, but used young in salads this is a leaf bestowed with much taste and colour.
