Interesting, I enjoy learning something new. I know my basil “bolts” if not trimmed. I love arugula in sandwiches because of the slight peppery flavor. Thanks!
Yes, exactly! But we should let half a big basic bush bolt, just for the flowers, bees, and butterflies. So pretty and smells good. I remember we had a basil Bush and it bolted quick in warmth.
Arugula is the favorite green around here. Its getting harder to find nice sized leaves in the store. The trend is all babyarugula, maybe because its a bit milder. Mid sized leaves are still soft but have a more yummy bite.
I am also partial to mache because it is so popular in Switzerland but also because I made a salad with my bare hands of it for President Reagan. :)
