Shiso Green Cress is packed with vitamins A, C, and K, promoting immune function, skin health, and bone strength. It also has natural antiseptic properties that help reduce harmful bacteria in raw seafood dishes.

Storage and Usage Tips
Our living microgreens are grown and distributed in clean, natural fiber and come in a cress tray to ensure maximum freshness and longevity. Store them on the kitchen counter for easy access, as Shiso is sensitive to cold and should not be kept in the fridge. Room temperature storage helps preserve its vibrant flavor and freshness
