Hearty Greens

Hearty greens are leafy vegetables with thicker leaves and a more substantial texture that holds up well to cooking. This group includes kale, collard greens, Swiss chard, mustard greens, turnip greens, beet greens, and other sturdy cooking greens.

Their flavors range from mild and earthy to peppery and slightly bitter. Unlike delicate salad greens, hearty greens are particularly well suited to sautéing, steaming, braising, soups, stews, and other cooked preparations. Younger leaves can also be eaten raw or lightly cooked.

In Season: Apr-Jun, Sep-Nov● in season now

Choose leaves that are firm, crisp, and vibrant in color. Smaller, younger leaves tend to be more tender, while mature leaves are particularly well suited to longer cooking. Avoid greens that are wilted, yellowing, slimy, or heavily damaged.
