Introducing the Brassica napus 'Wichita' Rape, also known as Wichita Canola Rape or Wichita Rape - developed by the Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station in 1999. This golden yellow flowering plant from the Brassicaceae family (mustard or cabbage family) produces edible quality canola oil and has improved winter survival in Great Plains conditions. The leaves are also edible and can be consumed raw or cooked, added to salads or used as a potherb. The immature flowering stems can be cooked like broccoli. The edible oil obtained from the seed is mainly used for cooking purposes but can also be used raw in salad dressings. The sprouted seed is even commonly used as the mustard part of mustard and cress. Wichita Rape is a nutritious and versatile plant that can add flavor and health benefits to any dish.
