🌾 Traditional Context

While the term microgreens is modern, eating young plant shoots has long been part of traditional food practices:

• Tender mustard and fenugreek shoots are mentioned in Ayurvedic food traditions

• East Asian cuisines have historically used radish shoots and young greens

• Young greens were valued for freshness, flavour, and seasonal eating

Today, modern food research continues to study young plants for their natural nutrient composition, making microgreens a meeting point of tradition and contemporary food culture.

• Vitamins such as A, C, E, K, and B-complex
