From the ancient and culturally significant agricultural region of Battir, Palestine, comes this delicious and healthful green. The Battir landscape, just a few miles from Jerusalem, is one of lush, terraced valleys fed by a network of irrigation channels and underground water sources that have operated since antiquity. In 2014, Battir was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Arugula (or Jarjeer in Arabic) is a beloved green in Mediterranean cuisines. In Jewish tradition, the 9th century rabbi Amram Ga’on recommended it as ideal for karpas, the bitter green of the Passover seder.
