Vegetable
Whole
Whole burdock is the market form before breaking into florets, leaves, or slices—best when heavy for size, fresh-coloured, and free of soft spots. Earthy artichoke-like sweetness (gobo). Store cold and dry; prep just before cooking. Whole roasting keeps moisture in; cutting speeds stir-fries and salads.
