Watercress is probably best known as a classic ingredient for soup. 

But its distinctive mustardy flavor can help enrich a wide range of dishes.



Try it hot in sauces, pasta, baked with fish or in a stir-fry. It brings a new dimension to pesto and is 

delicious in mashed potato - even the kids wouldn't complain. Or served raw, it adds a peppery bite to 

salads and sandwiches (a traditional favorite is with Marmite!). Juicing is another popular way 

to optimize intake, or you can snack on it straight from the bag.



Watercress combines particularly well with strong flavors such as garlic, chili, soy, ginger and onion, 

and here its pungency is mellowed. Conversely with rice, pasta or bread, it is accentuated. 



The texture is all about crunch, bite and sensation - vital juices burst from the stalk, then the smoother, 

slightly fleshy leaves release the mustard oil flavor. 



From soups and salads to family suppers, you'll find watercress to be an amazingly 

versatile ingredient for any occasion.
