Hello this is my first post. I was walking through a field of rape on a beautiful spring day here in the Uk yestreday and I got to wondering if the leaves of the rape can be eaten.They look like what they are ..brassicas. Saw another post about eating broccoli leaves (dont sound too nice). On Wikipedia it says they are edible but I am guessing that the rape grown for oil in the UK is not quite the same as what they call Yu Choy or Nanohana (in Japanese). Does anyone have any experience maybe a farmer or hedgerow expert?It is a shame if it all has to be ploughed back into the field after the seeds are extractedRegardsDai
