ARUGULA
Arugula (Eruca sativa) is also known as rocket or roquette. It is probably my favorite green for eating raw
in salads. It has a very unique flavor that is pleasantly nutty followed by a peppery kick. The peppery kick
gets more potent as the plant matures and as the summer gets hotter.
Arugula will only be distributed in salad mix. I use it generously in combination with mustard greens to make a spicy salad mix that some love and others despise. It can also be added to pesto and creamy pasta sauces for a unique flavor. |
