Salsify

Vegetables Seasonal Saturn

Salsify reaches its peak between October and February, offering a unique, delicate flavor reminiscent of oysters or artichokes. As a hardy winter root, it provides a sophisticated alternative to more common tubers. It is a good source of fiber, potassium, and inulin, a prebiotic that supports gut health.
