{"product_id":"038000","title":"FarmersCress","description":"\u003cp\u003eLike arugula, this is a member of the large cabbage family. The plants grow in the wild, but a cultivated spot is a real feast: at a height of 20-50 cm, they bloom profusely with white flower clusters. Once the heart-shaped fruits appear, you will see a resemblance to Shepherd's Purse. Field Pennycress has upright, heart-shaped fruits, while Shepherd's Purse has hanging fruits. Ensure fertile soil and sufficient water so that the plant does not bloom too quickly; the leaves are especially tasty before flowering begins, after which they become too bitter. You can eat them raw or cooked (e.g., in soups); the taste is very aromatic with a pleasant bitterness, delicious mixed into salads. The spent stems (full of fruits) are very graceful as a cut flower and very popular! And then the seeds... you can germinate them as sprouts or grind them into powder with a mortar and pestle and mix them into salad (a mustard substitute). Industrially, the seeds can be pressed for oil and may be usable as biofuel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-START --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNames:\u003cbr\u003e\nLatin: Thlaspi arvense\u003cbr\u003e\nDutch: Boerenkers\u003cbr\u003e\nAlso known as: Witte Krodde\u003cbr\u003e\nEnglish: Field Penny-Cress\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-END --\u003e","brand":"Vreeken","offers":[{"title":"2 g","offer_id":44175716417589,"sku":"038000","price":3.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/9092\/3573\/files\/038000.jpg?v=1750776026","url":"https:\/\/www.vreeken.nl\/en\/products\/038000","provider":"Vreeken's Zaden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
