Baby Spinach

1:1

Milder and sweeter than arugula. Excellent neutral swap in salads and on pizzas, but it lacks the peppery bite. Wilts similarly in warm dishes.

βœ…Best for: salads, pizza toppings, wilted dishes
⚠️Not for: dishes relying on peppery bitterness

Watercress

1:1

Similar peppery bite to arugula with a more delicate texture. The best flavor match for raw salads and garnishes.

βœ…Best for: salads, garnishes, sandwiches
⚠️Not for: cooked applications
