Arugula

Arugula — is a spicy little leaf, which some describe as bitter and others characterize as having a “pepperymustardy” 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. In Italy, arugula is often used in pizzas, added just before the baking period ends or immediately afterwards, so that it won’t wilt in the heat.
