The dark green, very curly sprouts can reach up to 8 inches high when grown as micro greens, packed with nutrition and flavor. This is the classic “cress” of egg-and-cress sandwiches, a mainstay of British high tea, and it is also delicious as an addition to salads, vegetable dishes, and savories. Chop it and sprinkle atop hummus and other dips for a burst of heat!
A member of the watercress and mustard family, this herb is best grown in soil or other non-water media; it will not do well in a sprouting jar. Drop the seeds onto any soilless growing medium in a flat and they will sprout immediately and grow quickly.
Adaptability of this variety:
