Description

Cress Microgreens are a small, delicate green. The bright green leaves are thin, smooth, broad, and flat with uniform, curved edges. The leaves are also connected to a sturdy but flexible green stem that contributes to the green’s crisp, succulent, and tender consistency. They have a sharp, peppery flavor with subtle, bitter-sweet notes. When consumed, the piquant flavors immediately descend onto the palate, similar to the pungent notes found in horseradish, but the bold taste dissipates quickly, leaving a clean, vegetal flavor mixed with a light citrus-like undertone.

Cress Microgreen leaves are a good source of calcium, vitamins A and C, and smaller amounts of vitamin K, potassium, folate, and vitamin E. It is important to note that the vitamins and minerals are found in the leaves.
