Watercress (aka Indian cress) is a wild plant that has been eaten since ancient times with small, thick leaves and a pungent peppery-spicy flavor. It is naturally high in vitamin C.
This watercress has been sustainably hand-foraged from the rivers and streams of the Pacific Northwest.
Origin: The Pacific Northwest
Season: Fresh watercress season usually occurs between March and September.
Applications: Wild watercress can be eaten raw or cooked. If you’ll be pureeing it into soups or sauces, the thick stems of the leaves can be left on, but otherwise they should be removed.
Watercress’s potent flavor means that it is frequently used with other strong ingredients, such as beets, bitter endives, vinegar, oranges & mustard. However, its flavor can also be balanced out using more mild elements such as cucumbers, nuts, tofu, buttermilk or cream, and starches like potatoes and rice. In either case, it works well in salads, with sautéed wild mushrooms, and as an accompaniment for roasted meat, smoked fish, grilled steaks, duck, and other poultry.
How to Store and Share: Store fresh watercress wrapped in plastic in your refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
Specifications: Each order is for 2 lbs of wild watercress.
Shipping Method: Fedex Overnight
