Tahoon Cress

Tahoon Cress is our exceptional living microgreen prized for their evolving flavor profile, truly worth a Chef’s Kiss! They are a springtime delicacy in the Himalayas, celebrated for their wild and unexpected flavor profile. This Willy Wonka microgreen starts with a rich roasted garlic taste, followed by earthy mushroom notes. As the flavor develops, hints of toasted nuts add warmth and depth. The finish is slightly smoky and meaty, making it a great addition to both vegetarian and meat-based dishes.

With their strong umami taste, Tahoon Cress is perfect for chefs looking to add extra flavor and complexity to their dishes. They work well in creamy dishes like French Onion Soup and risottos, enhancing their savory notes. They are a great match for slow-cooked meats like Beef Bourguignon, making every bite more flavorful.

Tahoon Cress is a game-changer in the kitchen. They are the chef’s go-to for infusing dishes with an extra layer of depth and savoriness. Their unique taste brings a rich umami boost that enhances a variety of ingredients and cooking styles. When paired with meats like beef, lamb, or poultry, their smoky, nutty qualities elevate the dish’s overall richness.

These microgreens also pair well with egg-based dishes, from omelets to quiches, bringing complexity and depth to every bite. Their ability to complement creamy textures makes them a standout garnish for cheese boards, soups, and pasta dishes.

They can enhance the flavors of charred or grilled foods, making them a fantastic topping for flatbreads, gourmet pizzas, and open-faced sandwiches. They pair beautifully with aged cheeses like Parmesan and Gruyère, adding an extra layer of umami.

Tahoon Cress is packed with nutrients that contribute to overall well-being. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, they offer multiple health benefits. Vitamin A is essential for maintaining good vision and supporting immune function, while vitamin C plays a vital role in collagen production, skin repair, and immune defense. Meanwhile, vitamin K helps with proper blood clotting and strengthens bones.

Tahoon Cress also contains important minerals like iron, magnesium, and potassium. Iron is crucial for carrying oxygen through the blood and preventing fatigue, while magnesium supports muscle function, nerve health, and heart regulation. Potassium helps maintain hydration levels, supports proper muscle contractions, and aids in blood pressure control, making it an essential nutrient for overall balance in the body.

Tahoon Cress is a natural source of antioxidants, which help reduce oxidative stress and support cellular health. These antioxidants can contribute to reducing inflammation and protecting against damage from environmental stressors.
