Arugula Roquette - Eruca sativa
$2.29
Arugula has been popular in Europe forever, but it just became THE gourmet green here in the states. You might know it as Rocket or Roquette.
The spicy little leaves heave a peppery-mustardy flavor, fantastic with a drizzle of olive oil or mixed with milder greens in a salad. It makes a wonderful pesto.
This is a cool weather crop, happiest in spring or fall gardens. Sow the seeds in spring or fall and you'll have greens to snip in a few weeks. 30 days.
