Welcome back to Peach Neighborhood! Today we’re meeting a bold, grown-up favorite—Gai Lan Uncle, loved and feared by many. 芥藍伯 / Gai Lan Uncle： 阿平伯好，大家好！芥藍確實有點個性，但處理得好，回甘會讓人上癮。 Hello A Ping and everyone! Gai lan does have character, but when cooked right, its sweetness really shines through. 阿平伯 / A Ping： 那芥藍從播種到可以採收，大概要多久？ So how long does gai lan take from planting to harvest? 芥藍伯 / Gai Lan Uncle： 大概 45 到 60 天，算是比較有耐心的一種菜，天氣涼一點品質最好。 About 45 to 60 days. It takes patience, and cooler weather produces the best quality. 阿平伯 / A Ping： 難怪常出現在冬天的餐桌。那種植芥藍有什麼重點？ No wonder it’s a winter table staple. Any key growing tips? 芥藍伯 / Gai Lan Uncle： 日照一定要夠，水不要太多，重點是收成要快，太老就會苦。 Plenty of sunlight is essential, but don’t overwater. Harvesting at the right time is crucial—too old and it turns bitter. 阿平伯 / A Ping： 很多人覺得芥藍苦，其實是處理方式的問題？ Many people think gai lan is bitter—could that be due to cooking methods? 芥藍伯 / Gai Lan Uncle： 對，汆燙後快炒或加蠔油，苦味會退，剩下的是清甜和脆感，還很補鈣。 Exactly. Blanching then quick stir-frying or adding oyster sauce reduces bitterness, leaving a crisp sweetness. Plus, it’s rich in calcium. 阿平伯 / A Ping： 原來是懂它的人才會愛的菜。今天的農田廣播就到這裡，謝謝芥藍伯，也希望大家下次遇到芥藍，多給它一次機會。 A vegetable for those who know how to appreciate it. That’s it for today’s Farmer Podcast. Thanks to Gai Lan Uncle, and we hope everyone gives it another chance next time. --- 📌 小補充 芥藍性偏涼，建議搭配蒜、薑或蠔油料理，口感更順、腸胃也更舒服。 Gai lan is cooling in nature; pairing it with garlic, ginger, or oyster sauce improves flavor and digestion.
