An unusual herb that you'll be hard-pressed to find elsewhere, dittander is in the same plant family as mustard. Its leaves have a wasabi-reminiscent kick, however unlike wasabi this heat doesn't linger and instead gives way to a subtle background, almost aniseed-y, sweetness.
Try the leaves chopped up in a herby frittata, thrown into a stir fry mix, or sliced into a salad. Its roots can be used as a horseradish replacement.

The produce has been delicious, and I’ve especially enjoyed cooking with unfamiliar veg such as kohlrabi and globe artichokes (I’m obsessed! So delicious and fun to eat) It’s also been fascinating to read the weekly newsletter.
Thanks for all the delicious vegetables every week! I know its way better quality that what I'd be buying from the supermarkets and knowing that I'm directly supporting some independent growing projects is amazing
