Brócoli

Good quality broccoli should have dark or bright green closed florets, and the head should be compact (firm to hand pressure), with a cleanly cut stalk of the required length. There should be no yellow florets and there should be no discoloration on the stem bracts.

CARE & HANDLING:

Mr. Duke's broccoli is rapidly cooled by liquid-icing and field-packed in waxed cartons. A temperature of 0°C (32°F) with >95% RH is required to optimize broccoli storage life (21-28 days). Heads stored at 5°C (41°F) can have a storage life of 14 days.
