Description: These upland cress seeds were grown organically and collected by myself..Upland cress is small to medium in size, averaging 15-20 centimeters in diameter, and grows in rosettes of rounded, flat leaves on narrow stems. The dark green leaves are glossy and pliable with lightly serrated edges, and there is faint veining spreading across the surface. The thin stems are light green, crisp, and tender. Upland cress has a peppery, pungent flavor that is similar, but stronger, than watercress. The flavor also becomes more pungent, often acrid, and less succulent with maturity. Upland cress contains vitamins A, C, and K, vitamin B2, potassium, iron, folate, manganese, and calcium. Upland cress is best suited for both raw and cooked applications such as steaming, boiling, or sautéing. When used fresh, the leaves can be tossed into salads, layered in sandwiches and wraps, mixed into pasta, or plated as a garnish. When cooked, the leaves are commonly mixed into soups, blended into sauces, or lightly sautéed and served alongside cooked meats. Upland cress can be used both raw and cooked similarly to greens such as kale. Upland cress pairs well with meats such as fish, poultry, ham, and smoked turkey, avocado, apples, cucumbers, onions, garlic, and Greek yogurt. The leaves will keep up to one week when wrapped in damp paper towels, placed in a sealed container, and stored in the crisper drawer of the refrigerator. If the cress was grown hydroponically and still has the roots attached, the plant will keep up to one week when stored at room temperature with the roots slightly submerged in water .
