The greenhouse complex Agrocultura Group, located in Novoselky village of the Kashira district (Russia) have taken up a new product.
“The novelty of the season is microgreens. For the time being we are experimenting with it so the production is going on in a small scale”, the company reported in a press release.
Microgreens have been gaining popularity not only in professional kitchens but also in households. Microgreens are tops of young plants used both for consumption and food decoration. They are also used in salads, soups, drinks, smoothies and cocktails.
As specialists claim, young plants contain the maximum concentration of nutritious substances (minerals, vitamins, micro-nutrients), they are rich in carotenoids and vitamin C, protecting the body from harmful free radicals.
In the near future, microgreens by Agricultura should appear in the shops.
