Pairs well with:
- Aromatics: Garlic, chilli flakes

- Acid: Lemon
- Fat: Good olive oil

- Tender enough to eat raw, but also holds up well to a longer, slower cook. One of the few crops in our range that's suitable for both
- Raw salads: Massage lightly with olive oil and lemon to soften, then add nuts, cheese, and a bright vinaigrette.
- Warm bowls: Toss into grain bowls or pasta just before serving so residual heat gently wilts the leaves.
- Sautéed side: Quick sauté with garlic, chili flakes, and a splash of soy or balsamic for a simple, mineral‑rich side.
- Soups and stews: Stir in during the last few minutes of cooking for added body and nutrition without tough texture.
