An ancient vegetable from Togo, West Africa. The young green leaves are cooked into delicious dishes, like you would cook collard greens. Easy and fun-to-grow plants take heat well, and are quite attractive with their green and yellow bitter fruit. A great piece of African culinary history that is rare and hard to find!
