What is arugula?

Arugula (Eruca sativa), is an edible annual plant, commonly known as salad rocket, roquette, rucola, rugula, or colewort. It is a member of the Brassicaceae family that includes kale, collards, turnip, mustard, Brussels sprouts, bok choy, napa cabbage, rapini, and watercress, among other amazing vegetables. Arugula is native to the Mediterranean region, from Morocco and Portugal in the west to Lebanon and Turkey in the east.

In addition to the leaves, the flowers (often used in salads as an edible garnish), young seed pods, and mature seeds are all edible.

Many people mistake arugula for lettuce, but it is actually an herb. It has a smooth, dark green leaf, similar to that of the dandelion. Its flavor is peppery and mustardy, and it is often used in salads, on sandwiches, or mixed in pasta sauces. It is available year-round in the produce section of most retail grocery stores. Wash your arugula thoroughly upon bringing it home from the store, as it picks up a lot of sand and dirt when it grows.
