Add microgreens to meals as a finishing garnish

3

Microgreens are best used raw as a finishing touch added just before serving. Heat destroys their delicate texture, vibrant color, and much of their nutritional value. Think of them as a flavor and nutrition booster, not a cooking ingredient.

Best Uses

  • Sandwiches and wraps — replace or supplement lettuce
  • Salads — mix varieties for complex flavor and visual appeal
  • Soups and bowls — add on top after plating
  • Smoothies — blend mild varieties like sunflower or pea shoots
  • Eggs and avocado toast — classic pairing for spicy radish microgreens
  • Tacos — add peppery microgreens for crunch and heat

Tips

  • Match flavors: spicy radish with rich foods, mild sunflower with delicate dishes
  • A small handful (10-15g) per serving is plenty
  • Add immediately before eating for the best crunch
