This spicy green is also known as Rocket or Roquette. It has dark green leaves that add a delicious peppery flavor to salads and are tastiest when harvested as 2-6" long baby greens. The leaves of mature plants can become very spicy and bitter.
Arugula is a lesser known cruciferous vegetable that provides many of the same benefits as other vegetables of the same family, which include broccoli, kale, and Brussels sprouts. Arugula leaves, also known as rocket or roquette, are tender and bite-sized with a tangy flavor. Along with other leafy greens, arugula contains high levels of beneficial nitrates and polyphenols.
Arugula is delicious raw, and it can be used as a healthy add-on topping for pizza, nachos, sandwiches, and wraps. Arugula’s leaf shape and taste also make it an interesting complement to citrus fruit and berry salads. Arugula can be used as an alternative to basil to make hot or cold pesto. When arugula is cooked, it loses some of its peppery punch, becoming mellower in taste.
Arugula is a great companion plant! Because it has shallow roots and doesn’t take up much space, it can be seeded around many slower growing crops to fill in the gaps. This can also be handy in the heat of summer, because larger crops will provide some shady relief to this cool weather lover. USDA Zone: 3-11
