These ingredients bring freshness to a plate and work well with contrasting textures such as cooked grains or crisp vegetables. Handle delicate leaves gently, and add dressings or finishing herbs near serving time. Dry washed leaves well when using them in salads so the dressing coats them rather than becoming watery. Natural produce varies in size, colour and ripeness through the season. If you are shopping for a particular recipe or occasion, our team can help you choose from what is currently available.
