    A favourite with chefs for its mild but spicy peppery flavour, pepper cress is similar in taste to watercress. Its bright green crisp leaves, which are attached to a slender stem, release a grassy taste followed by a bold and tangy spiciness. This hugely appetizing micro-green can be added to both cold and hot dishes, and is perhaps best paired with raw dishes such as ceviche.

    A showstopper of a micro-green, wasabi cress brings a sharp peppery flavor to a variety of Asian savoury dishes. Its miniature light green leaves tease the palate with an initial mild, sweet taste, which quickly bursts into an array of spicy notes that mellow quickly. Similar to horseradish, the Wasabi Cress is the perfect addition to sushi, sashimi and other South East Asian dishes.

If you’re looking for maximum impact on the palate and plate, this variety of micro cilantro offers big flavor in small leaves.


LETTUCES

We grow two varieties of lettuces that boast naturally rich flavour, firm texture and bright colours in bite-sized leaves – making them perfect for salad bases.

  • FRILLBERG

    Popular for both its texture and flavor this variety of lettuce gives you the perfect base for gourmet burgers and sandwiches. The frillberg combines the frilly texture of a lollo biondi lettuce with the crunchiness of an Iceberg. And, as one of the most heat-tolerant lettuces, it won’t wilt or taste bitter when served with warm ingredients.
