Market Forms of Vegetables
Target
Vegetables are an indispensable part of healthy eating—truly food for life.
There are lots of benefits we can get from eating our daily intake of vegetables. Many
veggies are rich in beta carotene, vitamin C, folate, potassium, and other minerals,
some are high in fibre content, which helps regulate bowel function and some are
rich in bioflavonoids and other compounds that help prevent diseases.
It is highly recommended that we eat a least five servings of vegetables daily.
A serving is a half cup of raw or cooked vegetables, a cup of leafy salad
vegetables, or half a cup of vegetable juice. Nutritionists recommend choosing a
variety of vegetables including raw and cooked ones; orange, red, dark green, and
yellow colored ones; and allium vegetables such as onions and garlic.
When choosing vegetables, the main consideration should always be quality.
This list features some different kinds of vegetables, along with some suggestions
about buying and storing them so that you to get the most nutrition for your money.

LESSON INFORMATION 1: MARKET FORMS OF VEGETABLES
Knowing the different forms of vegetables can also help in deciding which
vegetables to buy and prepare. Vegetables available in the market can be fresh,
frozen, dried, or canned.
1. Fresh
- Fresh vegetables are vegetables that have undergone little or no processing
from the time they were harvested to the time they were marketed or sold.
In general, they remain in the state as when they were harvested. Fresh
vegetables – and fruits, as well – are often referred to as produce and
typically sold in markets, grocery stores and supermarkets, and roadside
stalls, as well as in farmer’s markets and at vegetable farms. Some fresh
vegetables, like salad greens, are sold in plastic bags, boxes, and other
containers in stores.
2. Frozen
- Frozen vegetables are commercially packaged in plastic bags or cardboard
boxes. Typically, vegetables are frozen within hours of harvest, but they
undergo several steps that ensure their quality before the actual freezing
process. First, they are washed thoroughly to remove any dirt and debris,
as well as any chemicals that have been used such as pesticides and
fertilizers. Then, they are often blanched, or cooked quickly in boiling
water, and then shocked in ice water to stop the cooking process. The
vegetables are then sorted and inspected, so as to get rid of any vegetables
that are not fit for consumption. Lastly, they are packaged and shipped off
to wholesalers and distributors, as well as supermarkets and grocery
stores.
3. Dried
- Drying or dehydrating preserves vegetables and prolongs their shelf life.
Removing water from vegetables inhibits the growth of bacteria, yeasts and
molds that can otherwise promote spoilage and rot in vegetables. Dried
vegetables sold in markets and groceries are dehydrated using different
methods such as freeze drying, drum drying, air drying, and sun drying.
4. Canned
- Like freezing and drying, canning is a method of food preservation. It helps
make vegetables last longer. Also, like the other two methods, canning
makes cooking with vegetables easier and more convenient, as using
canned vegetables instead of fresh ones eliminates several steps in food
preparation.
- Before vegetables or any other food are canned, they undergo some form
of processing. Heat is first applied to vegetables to kill any harmful
microorganisms before they are sealed in airtight containers such as cans
or jars. The canned items are then heated under steam pressure before
being packed into boxes or crates.
LESSON INFORMATION 2: LIST OF DIFFERENT KINDS OF VEGETABLES
A vegetable is an edible, herb-like plant. The edible part of vegetables include
the leaves, fruit, stems, roots, tubers, seeds, and flower.
Vegetables are often categorized by their botanical origins or by their edible
parts:
1. Flower vegetables include broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels, sprouts, and
cabbage.
2. Fruit vegetables include avocados, cucumbers, eggplants, peppers, squash,
and tomatoes.
3. Green leafy vegetables include various type of lettuce, mustard greens,
spinach and Swiss chard.
• Some greens are lettuces, some are related to cabbage; others like radicchio,
are chicory. Even leafy herbs like cilantro find their way into flavorful salads.
• Spring greens are the new leaves of leafy vegetables that had been harvested
the previous season.
• Field mixes may be more tender and can be planted in the spring for harvest
a few weeks later
4. Seed vegetables include corn, peas, and beans
5. Root vegetables include carrots, beets, radishes, turnips, and onions.
6. Tuber vegetables include potatoes, sweet potatoes, and yams
7. Stem vegetables include asparagus, celery, artichokes, and mushrooms.
• In hydroponic farming, vegetables are grown indoor year-round, under
regulated temperatures and light, in nutrient-enriched water.
Artichokes: They are at their best when they
have plump, compact, olive-green heads and
are heavy for their size, with full fleshy, tightly
closed scales or leaves. To prevent drying, wrap
unwashed artichokes in a damp towel and
store in plastic bag in the refrigerator.
Artichokes provide vitamin C and are low in
kilojoules.
Asparagus: Always choose straight spears of
uniform thickness with compact pointed tips.
Round, plump spears are usually more tender
than flat ones. Aside from vitamin C, they have
some vitamin E and are high in riboflavin
thiamin, potassium, and iron.
Beans: There are three main groups of beans:
green beans, runner beans, and broad. Most
beans are available all year round. Fresh beans
are usually at their best when small and young.
Avoid tough, rubbery, or discoloured ones. Use
within a few days. Beans are high in protein
and carbohydrates. They are also a good source
of vitamins A, B1, and B2.
Bell Peppers/Capsicums: These are mild in
taste and can be eaten fresh or cooked. In
America, these are known as bell peppers. The
three main types are green, red, and yellow.
Green bell capsicums turn bright red when
they mature. Many other types of peppers exist
as well, such as the yellow banana
capsicum/pepper. When buying any of these
peppers, always look for firm, thick-fleshed,
and well-shaped specimens with a uniform,
glossy colour.
Beetroot: These veggies are a deep, rich red.
They can be served hot, cold, pickled, or in
salads. These are available all year. Choose
firm, smooth, globular tubers. Tubers can be
refrigerated in the vegetable crisper for up to
two weeks. This vegetable provides fibre, folate,
and potassium.
Broccoli: Available all year, it should be cooked
lightly and quickly to retain its crispness. Buy
broccoli with firm, compact clusters of closed
flower buds, sage green to dark green coloring,
and firm, tender, light green stalks. Avoid open
yellow buds, as this is a sign of over-maturity.
Brussels sprouts: Buy these as fresh as
possible because older ones are more likely to
have that strong, unpleasant "cabbage"
flavour. They should be small and hard with
tightly wrapped leaves. Avoid any that are
turning yellow or brown or have loose leaves. It
is better to buy them as you need them, but
they will keep for several days in the fridge.
Cabbage: A fresh cabbage's outer leaves
should be a fresh green or red colour depending
on the variety. The crinkly types and red
cabbages are generally preferred for salads and
coleslaw. Cabbage is rich in vitamin A and C,
folate, fibre, and potassium.
Carrots: Carrots are rich in carotene—a
substance that converts to vitamin A. These are
available all year round. Always choose firm,
straight, bright orange carrots.
Celery: This is a plant of many uses and little
waste. The leaves and dried seeds make
flavourful seasonings. The outer ribs are best
when cooked. The inner ribs or heart can be
eaten raw.
Eggplant: Known by its French name
"aubergine" in the UK and much of Europe, the
eggplant is a purple and pear-shaped
vegetable. Choose firm, smooth plants that are
heavy for their size and have no scars,
wrinkles, or flabbiness. Small fruits will have
more tender skins and fewer seeds than the
larger ones and are excellent grilled whole.
Refrigerate eggplant, and use within a week.
Low in kilojoules, eggplant contains vitamin C,
magnesium, and potassium.
Ginger: This one is also available all year
round. To prepare, simply peel away the skin
with a sharp knife and grate or thinly slice
according to the recipe. Ginger will keep in the
refrigerator, loosely covered, for two or three
months. Cut ends might grow mould, but that
can easily be trimmed.
Garlic: This pungent bulb is a member of the
amaryllis family. Its juice contains allicin, a
natural antibiotic. It's available all year round.
When buying garlic, keep an eye out for firm
and round bulbs with clear, papery skins,
avoid any that are beginning to sprout. Bulbs
will keep for weeks in a cool, dry, well-
ventilated place.
Horseradish: Sometimes called "German
mustard," it is grown for its sharp-flavoured
white roots that contain a volatile oil. Fresh
horseradish will keep in the refrigerator for up
to three months. It is excellent with hot or cold
beef, smoked trout or mackerel, or spread
thinly on sandwiches with a pate.
Kale: Most kale leaves have thick stems and
robust leaves that form a head. Curly-leafed
kale is the most common kind. Large, coarse-
leafed kales are grown for cattle and sheep
food. It is frequently teamed with fairly hot
spices and is popular in many Indian dishes.
Leeks: There are many varieties of leeks, but
they all taste more or less the same. Always buy
leeks that look fresh and healthy, meaning the
white part should be firm and unblemished,
and the leaves green and lively. It is best to buy
them when you need them. It is important to
wash them thoroughly before cooking, as dirt
and grit lodges itself between the white section
and the base.
Lettuce: There are numerous varieties of this
salad plant, including round lettuce, butter
head, crisp heads, loose heads, little gem, and
cos lettuce. Eat lettuce as soon as possible after
purchasing. In the meantime, keep it in a cool,
dark place such as the salad drawer of the
fridge.
Mushrooms: These are available all year
round. Always buy clean, creamy white or light
tan mushrooms. Avoid spongy, discolored, or
sweaty ones. Refrigerate, and use within a day
or two. Wipe mushrooms clean, but do not peel
or soak them. Mushrooms are an excellent low-
kilojoule food.
Okra: Commonly known as "ladies' fingers,"
this leafy green is grown in warm tropical
regions. The most notable characteristic are its
sticky consistency, which makes it a useful
thickener for soups or stews. If steamed
quickly, the pods will be tender and crisp
without releasing their sticky juice. When
buying okra, avoid tough, fibrous, or discolored
pods. This plant is rich in vitamin C, folate, and
magnesium. It also has a moderate amount of
vitamin A and fiber.
Onions: Onions are available all year and come
in a variety of different colors and strengths.
They contain a substance that releases when
they are cut and causes the eyes to water quite
painfully. Red, yellow, and sweet are the most
common varieties. There are also shallots.
Peas - Available almost all year round. Only
buy fresh peas. If they are old they are bound
to be disappointing and you would be better off
buying them frozen.
Potatoes - there are many varieties of potatoes
and potatoes can be cook in different ways
such as baking, boiling, chipping, mashing,
roasting sautéing and make it into salad. It is
good to always store in cool dry place. Potatoes
are important source of carbohydrates.
Radishes: These belong to the mustard family.
They range from round and red too long and
red or white. Radishes can be used as garnish
or finely sliced and cooked with other
vegetables. They are available all year round.
Always look for firm, bright ones. Remove their
leafy parts, and refrigerate in a plastic bag; use
within a week. These are a good source of
vitamin C.
Sweet Corn: A variety of maize that has been
developed for use as a fresh vegetable, it is
sweeter than the common field corn. It is
available frozen, both on the cob and in
kernels; the kernels are also very popular
canned.
Sweet Potatoes: These are available all year
and come in many varieties, but there are two
basic types: the dry-fleshed, rather-mealy,
pale-yellow-fleshed ones and the moist-fleshed
ones with deep yellow or orange-red flesh.
Sweet potatoes generally keep well when stored
in a cool, dry place.
Tomatoes: Few veggies are as ubiquitous as
the tomato, which is available all year. Always
look for firm. Plump fruit; the fresher they look,
the better. Refrigerate at once, or otherwise,
they will become mushy. Tomatoes are
excellent source of vitamin C and a good source
of vitamin A.
Turnips: Surprisingly, these are a member of
the cabbage family. The white-fleshed version
with a purple top is the most common. Some
varieties are grown especially for their leaves,
which are richer in nutrients than the roots.
Refrigerates turnips keep for long time.
Watercress: A delicate, round-leafed salad
plant of the mustard family. It has a distinctive
raw flavor that is both peppery and slightly
pungent. Choose only tender, young leaves
without tears and blemishes, and use as soon
as possible.
Zucchini: Also known as "courgette." They are
also referred to as "vegetable marrows" in the
UK. Green or yellow in color with fine edible
skin when young, they are harvested before
they grow too large. When fresh, they are also
a source of vitamin C.
