MICROGREENS: the
perfect edible garnish
|
|
These
tiny shoots of vegetables, greens, and herbs are
gaining increasing popularity, especially in fancy
white tablecloth restaurants where it is currently
prized as "the" preferred edible garnish to
enhance delicious entrees.
Microgreens
are
absolutely the most tender and tasty greens you will
ever eat and some have a more intense flavor than the
full-grown plant.
People
are always looking for something new because a filet's always
a filet - you want to do something new and different,
introduce new flavors when you can, therefore, Lettuce
Entertain You Farm Corporation comes up with FRESH
FIELD MicroGreens.
Discover
delightful leafy tastes and textures of microgreens
that put ho-hum curly parsley, carrots, basil, and bok
choy as garnishing ingridients to shame.

Aesthetically they're striking. But they're more than just a
pretty garnish -- they hold an incredibly flavorful essence of
a large plant in a tiny, intense package. That intense
flavor is the reason many chefs scrambling to create dishes
enhanced by the tiny leaves.
Aside
from superb taste and visual punch, microgreens also give the
dish a little height, which everyone seems to love right now,
and a little drama. |

Tips |
|
-
They
must be seasoned and dressed gently;
-
A
strong vinaigrette drowns the delicate flavor;
-
For
best color, flavor, and freshness, use promptly after
purchase;
-
To
store, keep refrigerated in plastic bag or containers;
-
For
optimum flavor, color and texture, use within three days;
-
They
can't sit at all as they get soggy -- they must be put on
a dish at the last second; and
-
Rinse
before use.
