About Roquette

Roquette, commonly known as arugula, is a leafy green vegetable native to the Mediterranean region. Popular in Italian and Middle Eastern cuisines, it boasts a distinct peppery flavor that adds depth to salads, pasta dishes, and sandwiches. Nutritionally dense, roquette is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, and provides antioxidants that support overall health. It also contains calcium and potassium, which contribute to bone and cardiovascular health. With its high fiber content, it aids digestion and helps maintain a feeling of fullness, making it ideal for weight management. Low in calories yet packed with essential nutrients, roquette is a wholesome addition to any diet. However, individuals with certain conditions, like kidney issues or sensitivities to oxalates, should consume it in moderation. Fresh and vibrant, roquette delivers both bold flavor and nutritional benefits, earning its place as a popular choice in health-conscious cooking.
