7-letter Vegetables that contain E

List of 7-letter Vegetables that contain E

1

Cabbage

Brassica oleracea var. capitata

A leafy brassica forming dense round heads, eaten raw, fermented, or cooked across nearly every cuisine in the temperate world.

2

Catsear

Hypochaeris radicata

A common dandelion-lookalike weed often called "false dandelion" — its leaves are edible like dandelion (with a milder flavor) and its roots have been roasted as a coffee substitute in foraging traditions.

3

Celtuce

Lactuca sativa var. asparagina

A Chinese variety of lettuce grown for its thick fleshy stem rather than its leaves — sliced into matchsticks or chunks for stir-fries, with a crispy mild flavor between celery and lettuce.

4

Lettuce

Lactuca sativa

A crisp leafy green grown in dozens of varieties from delicate butterhead to crunchy iceberg, the foundation of cold salads everywhere.

5

Nettles

Urtica dioica

The sting that becomes a virtue in the pot — stinging nettles are one of Britain's most nutritious wild vegetables, with young spring tips packed with iron, vitamin C, and protein; blanching removes the sting completely and leaves a deep green, earthy leaf used in soups, risotto, pasta, tea, and beer.

6

Oregano

Origanum vulgare

A pungent Mediterranean herb essential to Italian, Greek, and Mexican cooking — closely related to marjoram but more assertive, with the dried form actually more intense than fresh.

7

Perilla

Perilla frutescens

An aromatic herb-leaf with a complex, distinctive flavour somewhere between basil, mint, and anise — red and green varieties are central to Japanese, Korean, and Southeast Asian cuisines; the green variety (*shiso*) wraps sashimi and flavours rice; the red variety colours pickled plums and sesame oil in Japanese cooking.

8

Sea Kale

Crambe maritima

A British coastal native cultivated as a luxury spring vegetable — the young shoots are blanched by covering the crowns in early spring to exclude light, producing ivory-white, tender spears with a mild, nutty, slightly bitter flavour reminiscent of asparagus; once highly prized at Victorian tables, it fell out of fashion but has been revived by chefs and kitchen gardeners seeking heritage vegetables.

9

Snap Pea

Pisum sativum var. macrocarpon

A cross between the garden pea and mangetout — the entire crisp, sweet pod is eaten whole, including the small, developed peas inside; one of the sweetest raw vegetables and a favourite for snacking and stir-frying.
