Seasonal and Special Tools
Arugula, also known as rocket, is an undemanding leafy green vegetable that you'll love not only for its spicy flavor, but also for its high content of vitamin C and beta-carotene. It supports body detoxification and improves digestion. You can easily grow it even on a balcony if you follow a few simple principles. Read on to learn how to do it step by step.
In short: Arugula (rocket) is ready to harvest just 4 to 6 weeks after sowing. It needs a sunny or partly shaded spot, well-draining nutrient-rich soil that stays slightly moist, and regular watering without waterlogging. Sow it repeatedly from spring to autumn, or grow it in a deep container on a balcony and pick the leaves gradually.

🥗 How to Use Arugula in the Kitchen?
Start consuming arugula gradually due to its distinctive flavor. It tastes best:
- in fresh salads
- as an addition to pasta and risottos

Arugula acts as a natural detoxifier. Its leaves support liver function, help lower cholesterol, and generally contribute to good digestion.
