Arugula

In Season
Spring, Summer, and Fall

Storage Tips
Store up to 1 week

Wash and dry in a salad spinner before placing in a plastic bag in your refrigerator.

For longer storage, blend into a pesto (see recipe below) and refrigerate or freeze.

Culinary Tips
For a spicy addition to salad,  add small tender arugula greens.

Make a simple and tasty arugula salad by adding a soft cheese, dried fruits, grated carrots, and walnuts tossed in your favorite vinaigrette.

Add to sandwiches and omelettes for color and taste.

Quickly braise or sauté and add to a pasta with grated parmesan.

Add cooked arugula to quiche and lasagna.
​
Smaller arugula leaves tend to be milder, while larger leaves tend to have a more aggressive, peppery kick.
