Microgreens & Their Benefits
What are Microgreens?
Microgreens are young vegetable and herb plants harvested just after the first leaves develop. Though small, they carry the full flavor and aroma of the mature plant in a much more concentrated form.
Because they are harvested early, microgreens are incredibly tender, vibrant in color, and packed with fresh flavor. Chefs often use them to add brightness, texture, and depth to a dish.
Microgreens are known for their intense taste and nutritional density. Studies have shown they can contain significantly higher levels of vitamins and antioxidants than their mature counterparts.
They also represent a more sustainable way to grow food. Microgreens require very little space, water, and time to produce, making them ideal for urban farming.
