This variety works for:
- Fresh eating
The nutty and peppery taste of arugula is strong for a leafy green and provides a nice contrast to lettuce in a salad.
Larger and older leaves should be warmed and even lightly wilted for the best flavor. You can sprinkle them on pizzas fresh from the oven or toss them with pasta and roasted tomatoes.
Try replacing basil with arugula in your favorite pesto recipe!
Instructions - Sow seeds outdoors as soon as soil can be worked and danger of hard frost has passed. For a continuous supply of arugula, sow every three weeks throughout the summer. Best grown in cooler weather. Plant in full sun, or partial shade.
