Tokyo Bekana as Romaine

Tanner mentions that Tokyo Bekana is a crop that he calls “Tokyo Bekana Romaine” to market it effectively. He explains that it’s a combination of bok choy and cabbage, and despite the unusual name, it sells “like crazy”. He also notes that chefs are even forming menus around it, which he finds “pretty cool”. He shows an example of the Tokyo Bekana as a direct-sown seedling that will grow into a head and be sold as “Romaine”.
