🍋 The little green that tastes like lemon!
If you’ve never tried sorrel microgreens, you’re in for a surprise. These tiny leaves pack a bright, tangy flavor that is naturally reminiscent of lemon—without adding a drop of citrus.
Our sorrel is Rumex acetosa, also known as garden sorrel or common sorrel.
A few things that make this microgreen especially interesting:
🍋 BIG flavor in a tiny leaf
Sorrel has a naturally tart flavor from organic acids, including oxalic acid. A little goes a long way, making it perfect as an accent green.
👩🍳 A chef’s secret weapon
Try it with eggs, seafood, chicken, pork, potatoes, creamy dishes, or salads. That bright acidity can cut through rich flavors beautifully.
🌱 More than just pretty
Sorrel contains naturally occurring plant compounds, including polyphenols and other antioxidant compounds. Like other microgreens, its nutritional profile can vary depending on the growing conditions and harvest stage.
💚 A perennial plant
While we harvest it as a microgreen, the mature sorrel plant is actually a perennial herb that can return year after year in the garden.
✨ And then there’s the flavor…
It’s one of those greens that makes people stop and say,
“Wait…this actually tastes like lemon!” 😂🍋
We love growing specialty greens like sorrel because microgreens aren’t just about adding nutrients to your plate—they can add completely new flavors, textures, and experiences to everyday food.
Have you tried sorrel before?
