  • HEALTH

    Cilantro is a powerhouse containing vitamins, A, B2, B5, and B9, C, E, and K, phosphorus, calcium, iron, potassium, zinc, and beta-carotene. Micro Cilantro shares three times more provitamin A than its mature counterpart. Vitamin E, essential for a proper functioning immune system, also aides in cellular repair, wound healing, and skin moisturization. The higher levels of vitamin K also aid in blood coagulation. Stigmasterol is found in small quantities which can help to lower LDL (bad) Cholesterol and raise HCL (good) Cholesterol levels at the same time. All this means they help reduce inflammation, aid in digestion, ease chronic disease and play a role in eye health too.

    Please note that while microgreens have many potential health benefits, it is essential to consume them as part of a balanced diet and not rely on them as the sole treatment for any medical conditions. Always consult with your primary healthcare professional before making any changes to your diet.

  • TASTE

    Their aromatic leaves provide an intense flavor which makes them a versatile ingredient in the kitchen. They add a beautiful pop of color and a fresh flavor. These micro versions give a more robust flavor offering a creative twist.

  • USE

    This colorful addition can be used to top any type of taco and is necessary when making guacamole to add that traditional flavor. They can enhance any salad, soup, or main dish. Add them into your Morning Smoothie with banana, mango, and baby spinach to have a healthy start to your day. Mix them last into your Black Beans with Grilled Corn salad to bring all the flavors together. Oh, you got to try them on your Shrimp Ceviche, a quick and effortless way to add bright, bold color and a zesty flavor. And my favorite is to add our cilantro microgreens to Mom’s Homemade Coleslaw which not only adds great color but such a great flavor to our traditional recipe!

    I am sure you have a creative way to use them too. Let us know!

  • STORAGE

    To help your shoots get their longest shelf life, store your microgreens in a dry, cool place. Wash them just before eating them. Storing them in a resealable bag or container with a lid works well. Add a paper towel if needed to remove water. Do not store them wet.  Your microgreens should store for 7-14 days in the refrigerator.  Many find these greens stay fresh for up to 30 days!
