The shape of the fruits is different from the uchu cream I know
I haven't grown it myself, but I read that it has just a grassy flavor and it isn't usually used in cooking
The ones I grew looked like this. The pods were fairly mild, small, seedy, and a bit bland tasting to me. Mine had the shorter pods like SF posted above. Only about 1.25" or 3.2 cm long. Overall I would say it is a very pretty ornamental plant, but definitely something you grow for the beautiful foliage rather than for the pods themselves.
