Harvesting
– Wild rocket is a cut-and-come again plant that you can keep harvesting as leaves mature.
– Stop harvesting the leaves once the plant flowers or they will become bitter-tasting.
– If wild rocket wilts after harvest, submerge it in lukewarm water for 60 seconds, then submerge it in ice water. It will become crispy after that.
