Microgreens are young greens harvested right after their first leaves appear.
Unlike sprouts, they are cut above the soil and eaten without the seed and roots.
Many microgreen vegetables are packed with vitamins and essential nutrients.
Even a simple dish can look like a café-style meal with just a sprinkle of microgreens.
The tiny greens often taste better than the mature vegetables.
They come with a variety of flavours: peppery, mild, nutty, or herby, choose what suits your taste and meals.
Microgreens are rich in dietary fiber, which supports healthy digestion and maintains blood sugar levels.
Antioxidants in microgreens shield the body from oxidative stress.
Anyone can grow microgreens at home with just a little care.
Microgreens leave a much smaller carbon footprint compared to traditional farming.
