Wild rocket is rich in vitamin C
A few days ago, during a trek in the hinterland of Molise, I discovered wild rocket. If I had been alone, without an expert guide who showed me where to see rocket, I probably would not have seen rocket because I would not have been able to recognize it, I would have walked over it without even noticing.
It was a very interesting discovery, wild rocket has nothing to do with the rocket we find in bags in supermarkets: it is more bitter and above all much tastier!
Wild rocket contains a lot of vitamin C as well as important minerals such as calcium and iron. In addition, rocket is one of the most beneficial vegetables because it also has an anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor action, it belongs to the cruciferous group. Vitamin C is sensitive to heat, so it should be eaten raw.
This topic interests me and I will explore it further thanks to a rural project here in the area where I live: Molise Farm.
