List of 3-syllable Vegetables that end with S

1

Brussels Sprouts

Brassica oleracea var. gemmifera

Tiny cabbage-like buds growing along a tall stalk — the most-divisive vegetable of the 20th century, transformed in the 21st through high-heat roasting and dramatic genetic improvement.

2

Collard Greens

Brassica oleracea var. viridis

Large, flat, dark green brassica leaves with a mild-bitter flavour — slow-braised for hours in the American South with smoked pork until silky; also eaten across Africa, Brazil, and Portugal.

3

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.

4

Dolichos

Lablab purpureus

A purple-podded climbing bean (also called hyacinth bean or lablab) used across South Asian, African, and Caribbean cuisines — both fresh pods and dried beans, with edible flowers and ornamental status as a garden showpiece.

5

Lemongrass

Cymbopogon citratus

A tropical grass with an intensely citrus-lemony fragrance from its stalks — essential in Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, and Malaysian cooking; the bottom white section is finely sliced or pounded into pastes, while the whole stalk is used to infuse soups and curries.

6

Watercress

Nasturtium officinale

A peppery aquatic green growing wild in cold streams across Eurasia and the Americas, eaten in sandwiches, salads, and soups, and ranked the most nutrient-dense vegetable on Earth.
