How to grow microgreens : quick, easy ways to grow & eat nature's tasty superfoods
Hill, Fionna, 1946-2010
Book
Microgreens - the tiny seedlings of herbs and vegetables - are today's hottest gourmet garnish, offering a multitude of colours, textures and distinct flavours, ranging from mild and subtle to spicy, hot or nutty. Larger than sprouts and smaller than 'baby' salad greens, microgreens are fantastic for those with limited garden space, as they are great to grow in containers on a terrace or windowsill. Immediate and practical, most varieties are ready in a week or so, and you can grow them in winter. As a bonus, as well as tasting great, nutritionally microgreens pack a powerful punch; they contain higher levels of active plant compounds than mature plants or seeds. This book shows readers how to grow them.
