ABOUT
Harley Queen gives beet microgreens with vivid magenta-red stems under fresh green seed leaves. The taste is straightforward beet, earthy and sweet, and the stems snap cleanly when you bite them.
What you sow is not a single seed but a corky seed ball holding several embryos. One ball can give two or more seedlings, and they appear over several days, not all at once. Wait for the end of blackout before you judge how the tray has germinated.
While covered, the seedlings stay pale. The magenta-red develops once they reach the light, so keep the tray in strong light from the day you uncover it. A full 100 g per tray may look like a lot of seed, but it suits a crop that you cut as soon as the seed leaves open.
IN THE KITCHEN
Harley Queen microgreens are best raw, where you can see the magenta stems: on buttered sourdough or rye, blinis with crème fraîche, beetroot hummus, roasted squash, or dark leaf salads with orange. Scatter them on at the last moment, because warm food makes them limp. Leftovers keep for about a week in a closed box in the fridge, as long as you put them in dry.
