This is an herb, vegetable or salad green, depending on the recipe. Try it torn up as a salad on it’s own with chopped apples & blue cheese, or just add to a lettuce salad for a zip. A wonderful salad is made with spicy arugula, shredded radiccio, a few seeded and sliced cucumbers and a simple vinaigrette. Or as a lettuce-replacement on a sandwich. It can also replace spinach in many cooked spinach recipes. (How about that famous American appetizer: spinach dip?)
Until a few years ago I had never heard of Arugula much less tasted it. My daughter introduced me to it and I became an instant fan.
