About Cress
Cress is a leafy green herb often used for its peppery flavor and delicate texture. Belonging to the Brassicaceae family, it is commonly found in Middle Eastern, European, and Asian cuisines, often enjoyed fresh in salads, sandwiches, or as a garnish. Nutritionally, cress is packed with vitamins A, C, and K, alongside minerals like iron and calcium. Its high antioxidant content supports immune health, while its low-calorie profile makes it ideal for weight-conscious diets. The mild spiciness comes from sulfur compounds, which may promote detoxification processes in the body. Cress also contains fiber, aiding in digestion. Due to its strong flavor, it’s typically used in moderation. Overall, its fresh taste and nutrient density make it a valuable addition to meals, enhancing flavor and providing health benefits.
