Any ideas for a salad leaf replacement for rocket (besides spinach)? Must be similar in texture but not taste.!
I want to make a specific salad which contains rocket and spinach for a barbecue this evening!. Unfortunately my mum hates rocket and not knowing much about salad leaves and their tastes, I'm not sure what to replace it with!. I's appreciate any help offered!.
Many thanks,

Lambs lettuce, sometimes known as mache is really good!.!.!.its likewatercress but with more flavour!.!.!.not strong like rocket tho!Www@FoodAQ@Com
I would go with "Chemist" and use the cress either the watercress or pepper one, even frisee is nice, Mache or lambs lttuce is to delicate, for a different taste why not try coriander/cilantro or even fresh mint leaves!.
I know from the wording your from the UK and here in Canada, I would use the curly endive or chicory as known in Europe, even Treviso Raddicio or Coss lettuce, we know it here as Romaine and when I was in London saw it and yours is much smaller than the ones grown here!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
