Organic 3" Starts. Bloomsdale Longstanding Spinach has a robust, earthy flavor with a slightly sweet and mild bitterness. It is known for its deep, rich taste compared to some other spinach varieties. The leaves are thick, tender, and slightly crinkled, which helps retain flavor when cooked. Raw, it has a fresh, slightly peppery bite that softens once it’s sautéed or cooked, becoming more savory and smooth. The rich, slightly nutty flavor makes it perfect for use in soups, stews, omelets, and sautés. Bloomsdale Longstanding spinach holds up well to cooking, maintaining its flavor and texture in a variety of dishes.
Organic 3" Starts. Golden Frills Mustard Greens have a bright, spicy, and slightly sweet flavor with a delicate, feathery texture. They offer a bold mustard-like heat, similar to wasabi or horseradish, but with a milder, more balanced bite compared to stronger mustard green varieties. When eaten raw, Golden Frills add a zesty kick to salads, sandwiches, and garnishes. Cooking them mellows out their heat, bringing out a subtle sweetness and mild earthiness, making them a great addition to stir-fries, soups, and sautés. Their finely serrated, frilly leaves not only provide a unique texture but also make dishes visually striking.
Organic 3" Starts. Red Sails lettuce has a mild, slightly sweet, and buttery flavor with a hint of nuttiness. It is tender yet crisp, with a delicate texture that makes it perfect for fresh salads, sandwiches, and wraps. Compared to other loose-leaf lettuces, Red Sails has a more subtle flavor with very little bitterness, making it appealing for those who enjoy a mild green. The vibrant red-tinged leaves not only add color to dishes but also provide a soft, almost melt-in-your-mouth quality. It pairs well with light vinaigrettes, citrus, nuts, and cheeses, enhancing both flavor and presentation.
Organic 3" Starts. Tokyo Bekana has a mild, slightly sweet, and buttery flavor with a hint of pepperiness, similar to a very mild napa cabbage.
