About Arugula, baby, raw
Arugula is a peppery, leafy green also known as rocket, rucola, or roquette, prized for the bold, slightly spicy, mustard-like bite it brings to salads and sandwiches. A member of the cruciferous family alongside kale, broccoli, and mustard, this fast-growing Mediterranean green has tender, deeply lobed leaves that taste sharper and more pungent as the plant matures. Arugula is very low in calories yet rich in vitamin K, folate, vitamin A, calcium, and antioxidants, making it a flavorful way to add nutrition to a plate.
It works beautifully raw, simply tossed with olive oil, lemon, and shaved Parmesan, piled onto pizza fresh from the oven, layered into sandwiches and paninis, or wilted briefly into hot pasta and risotto. It also blends into a lively, peppery pesto. Baby arugula is milder and more delicate, ideal for tender salads, while wild arugula has a stronger, more intense flavor. Choose crisp, deep-green leaves without yellowing, keep them dry and refrigerated, and use arugula within a few days while the leaves are at their freshest.
