What it is

Baby arugula is a young, tender variety of arugula, a leafy green vegetable in the mustard family. It has a distinct peppery flavor, milder than mature arugula. It is grown specifically for its delicate leaves, harvested earlier than mature plants.

Why it's used

Baby arugula is primarily used as a salad green, adding a fresh, slightly spicy taste to dishes. It's often found in pre-packaged salad mixes, gourmet salads, and as a garnish for pizzas, pastas, and other savory meals. Its mild flavor makes it versatile for various culinary applications.

Health notes

Baby arugula is a source of vitamins and minerals. The FDA generally recognizes it as safe (GRAS) as a food ingredient. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated arugula and its components, but specific health claims are not typically associated with its consumption as a vegetable. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming baby arugula in typical dietary amounts.

Allergen info

Baby arugula is not a major allergen. It does not contain gluten.
