Micro Magenta Spinach (Red Orache)

This product is not currently available.

You may have heard the plant that produces these stunning red, oblong-shaped leaves called mountain spinach or French spinach. But by any name, red orache is mildly flavored and eye-catching in a salad of mixed greens or tossed into buttered pasta the moment before you serve it.

Here's what you get:

  • 4 oz of micro magenta spinach (red orache)

Better Red

The flavor of red orache is similar to green spinach or chard, but its shade of magenta is anything but ordinary. It’s been grown for millennia and cooked long before the advent of the green spinach we know today. We think it’s at its peak when young, as Brian Hashizume gathers it, and served as part of a salad. We think it’s best served tossed into a simple pasta, dressed with olive oil, salt, pepper and lemon juice, right before you send it to the table.
