La très grande variété de légumes crucifères disponibles sur le marché rend très facile l'inclusion de ces légumes dans nos habitudes alimentaires. Les différentes formes de choux (choux pommés, choux de Bruxelles, kale), le brocoli, le chou-fleur, le radis et le navet sont les principaux crucifères consommés, mais il ne faut pas oublier que le cresson, la roquette, les feuilles de moutarde ou le rapini font eux aussi partie de cette famille et peuvent permettre de profiter des bienfaits des crucifères tout en ajoutant une touche de variété. 1, record 1, French, - l%C3%A9gume%20crucif%C3%A8re
