Ice plant Microgreens Seeds (25g)
Ice plant microgreens, also known as Glacier or Mesembryanthemum crystallinum microgreens, have a unique flavor profile. They offer a refreshing and slightly salty taste, similar to a mild cucumber with a hint of lemony tang.
The best time to harvest Ice plant microgreens for optimal flavor is when they have reached a height of around 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) and have developed their first set of true leaves. At this stage, the microgreens will have a good balance of flavor and texture.
To harvest Ice plant microgreens, use clean scissors or a sharp knife to cut them just above the soil level, leaving the roots behind. Rinse the harvested microgreens gently under cool water to remove any soil particles.
It’s worth noting that Ice plant microgreens are known for their succulent and water-rich leaves. Harvesting them at an earlier stage will provide a more tender and milder taste. Allowing them to grow a bit longer may result in a slightly stronger flavor. Experiment with different harvest times to find the flavor profile that suits your taste preferences, whether you prefer a more subtle or robust taste.
