Crystalline Ice Plant Vegetable

The Japanese Crystalline Ice Plant Vegetable boasts a frosted appearance and tiny beads that hint at its coastal origins. Its unique blend of a salty flavour profile, crunchy exterior, and juicy interior make it a versatile substitute for other vegetables.

Unlike conventional lettuce, the Ice Plant is not only low in calories but also rich in essential nutrients and minerals, including Myo-inositol, a rarity in leafy greens. Elevate your culinary endeavours with the glistening bladder cells on the Ice Plant's leaves, creating tiny dew droplets that inspired its name.

STORAGE

The Crystalline Ice Plant Vegetable is packed with moisture, so avoid leaving it out in the humidity or direct sunlight. This could make the leaves go limp and mess with its quality and taste. To keep it at its best, stash it in a cool, shaded spot or refrigerated in the chilled section but never freeze them.

FUN FACTS & TIPS

Transporting the Crystalline Ice Plant requires careful attention to moisture levels. Exposure to humidity or direct sunlight for extended periods may cause wilting, affecting both the quality and taste.
