Microgreens Growing Kit
Intensely flavored microgreens have become the new thing for today's most forward-thinking chefs and are appearing with increasing frequency on restaurant menus. But what are they? Microgreens are filament-thin, delicate seedlings, the smallest possible incarnation of leafy vegetables and herbs. Use them as garnishes or toppings for almost any dish - try atop sliced pork loin or as a bed for roasted beets and fennel. Or make them the star of the dish, as the explosive burst of flavor in a salad dish, as the explosive burst of flavor in a salad with a light dressing of lemon juice and olive oil. Microgreens allow you to utilize common fruiting or root vegetables in a different stage of growth to highlight thier intrinsic flavors while adding texture and visual excitement. In just a week or two, as soon as the plants have a few leaves, snip what you need for a vibrant bouquet of just-harvested flavor! You can also use this kit to grow catnip or oats for your cat!
