Native to the Mediterranean region, it was introduced to Japan during the Meiji period. The edible part is the stalk at the base of the leaves, which swells into a sphere. The outer skin can be white, light green, or reddish purple. It is harvested when the bulb is 4-5 cm in diameter and used in vinegar pickles and salads.
