What is Arugula?!
nfd?
Answers: Arugula is a spicy little leaf, which some describe as bitter and others characterize as having a "peppery-mustardy" flavor. Because it is so potent on its own, it is often mixed with milder greens to produce a nice balanced salad. It can also be sautéed in olive oil. You can substitute most any green for arugula, but the closest matches are Belgian endive, escarole, and dandelion greens.

a green veggie. like a bitter lettuce-yum!
a lettuce
Rocket - type of salad leaf
Arugula is one of those great, simple greens to grow at home. Sow the seeds in a sunny location in succession plantings (approximately every 20 to 30 days) from early spring to fall.
Arugula performs best in spring to early summer. After that time, plant it under the shade of an "airy" tree (not dense shade), or under shade cloth. It is not fussy at all, although too much drought and summer heat will cause the leaves to be smaller and more "peppery".
This plant does go to "seed" fairly quickly. But use the flowers in your salads and collect seeds for future plantings. And if you make your "succession" plantings, then the new plants will be ready as the older plants are going to seed.

It's a leafy green herb from the mustard family like green leaf lettuce.
a type of lettuce. It has a spicy almost bitter taste and is really good paired with baby spinach or romaine lettuce in a salad with vinaigrette.
It is a green leafy vegetable used as a lettuce or spice. It has a peppery taste and is good on sandwiches as well as salads. It reminds me of watercress.
Arugula is added to salads to give them a bite...just as curly endive (frisée)....I personally like the combination of bitter with vinegar...and I like frisée or Arugula doused with a nice vinaigrette....but a lot of people don't....
its a spicy lettuce. SO GOOD though.
its a dark, leafy green. its a bit bitter tasting and a bit spicy.
