This narrow- and toothed-leaf wild arugula has long been highly valued by Italians. They call this variety Rucola selvatica. Its pungent mustard flavour is a great addition to raw salads. The young leaves are eaten before flowering. An advantage over common arugula: this one is perennial. Another wild arugula (Eruca vesicaria) is also known as Garden Rocket.
