Fresh Origins Micro Red Shiso 8 oz.

Details

Bring new life to your cuisine with this Fresh Origins micro red shiso! Microgreens are tiny, edible greens that are harvested shortly after they've sprouted. This variety of microgreen features luscious, spade-shaped leaves with a stunning purple hue that freshen up any menu item. It boasts a flexible, tender texture and produces a sweet, spicy flavor and notes of spearmint and anise. Its aroma is reminiscent of baking spices, such as cinnamon and cloves. With a wide variety of uses, these versatile microgreens will create a dynamic presentation that will impress your guests, draw attention to your dishes, and inspire patrons to photograph and share images of their exquisitely plated food.

Not only do microgreens provide bold flavor, but they are also typically more nutrient dense than mature greens! Without the need to trim, chop, or chiffonade them, they also require less preparation before use. Use these microgreens to decorate crudo dishes, sushi, specialty beverages, desserts, or hearty meat and seafood entrees to provide a curated, finished appearance and enhance the dining experience for your customers. Sprinkle them over bowls of soup just before serving to add a splash of color and fresh flavor. These microgreens are the perfect way to set your food presentations apart from the competition, infusing your fare with color, texture, aromatics, and visual appeal.
