baby arugula
Young peppery leaves
Baby arugula is arugula harvested young, when the leaves are small and tender.
The flavor is milder and less peppery than mature arugula, making it popular in salads where it can be eaten raw without overwhelming other ingredients: a simple salad of baby arugula with shaved parmesan.
