Rocket is a hardy annual reaching up to 100cm, prized for its vibrant green, serrated leaves and distinctively peppery bite. While a staple in fresh salads, it also adds a zesty kick to cooked dishes like pasta and pizza. For the best flavour and texture, harvest the leaves while they are young and tender.
