List of 6-letter Vegetables that contain S

1

Cactus

Opuntia ficus-indica

Edible cactus pads (nopales) and stems from prickly pear and related species — a staple of Mexican cooking, eaten grilled, scrambled with eggs, or in salads.

2

Chives

Allium schoenoprasum

Slim hollow grass-like onion relatives — the mildest member of the *Allium* family, used as fresh herb garnish for soups, eggs, baked potatoes, and countless other dishes.

3

Radish

Raphanus sativus

A small, crisp, peppery root vegetable in the brassica family, eaten raw with salt and butter, sliced into salads, or roasted to mellow its bite.

4

Sorrel

Rumex acetosa (common sorrel); Rumex scutatus (French sorrel)

A sharp, lemony herb-leaf vegetable with one of the most intensely sour tastes in the vegetable garden — its oxalic acid content gives it a flavour like lemon juice with green leafy notes; used in French sorrel soup, as a sauce with fish, wilted with cream, or raw in salads where it cuts through richness.

5

Tatsoi

Brassica rapa var. rosularis

A small Asian green with dark spoon-shaped leaves arranged in a flat rosette — a cousin of bok choy, eaten in salads, stir-fries, and increasingly in Western salad mixes for its distinctive shape and mild mustard flavor.

6

Wasabi

Eutrema japonicum (syn. Wasabia japonica)

Japan's fiery green condiment — not a chilli heat but a sharp, volatile, nasal-clearing pungency from isothiocyanates that hits instantly and dissipates quickly; true wasabi is the grated rhizome of a semi-aquatic Japanese plant; the green paste served in most Western sushi restaurants is imitation wasabi made from horseradish, mustard, and food colouring.
