List of 11-letter Vegetables

    1

    Bamboo Shoot

    Various (Phyllostachys edulis — Mao bamboo; Bambusa spp.; Dendrocalamus spp.)

    The edible young growth of bamboo plants — harvested as they emerge from the soil before the shoots harden into woody cane; a staple of East and Southeast Asian cooking, eaten fresh, tinned, or fermented.

    2

    Bitter Melon

    Momordica charantia

    A tropical vine vegetable with intensely bitter flesh — the most bitter of all commonly eaten vegetables; used across Asia and the Caribbean for its medicinal properties and its role as a flavour counterpoint to rich, fatty dishes.

    3

    Cauliflower

    Brassica oleracea var. botrytis

    A pale, dense flower-bud cluster of the same species as broccoli, marketed in recent years as a low-carb stand-in for grains and starches.

    4

    Dabberlocks

    Alaria esculenta

    A long brown-olive Atlantic seaweed (also called winged kelp or badderlocks) — a traditional Scottish and Icelandic food eaten as a salad green, soup ingredient, or chewy snack.

    5

    Horseradish

    Armoracia rusticana

    A sharp, eye-watering root in the brassica family — the active ingredient in prepared horseradish and wasabi-style condiments, with chemistry similar to mustard.

    6

    Sweet Potato

    Ipomoea batatas

    A starchy, sweet-fleshed tuber unrelated to the common potato, native to Central America and a global staple food crop, especially in tropical and subtropical agriculture.
