Persinette Cress

Persinette Cress is the Koppert Cress brand name for an edible plant. It should be added just before serving to avoid adding bitterness to the dish. It is best used fresh rather than cooked, deep-fried, or dried. Due to its finer structure when young, this cress offers a more subtle flavor and pleasant mouthfeel compared to traditional varieties.

It is highly popular as a garnish and seasoning for soups, meat, fish, and poultry.
