Caribbean Fresh MarketVerdolagas (Purslane)$5.96/ eachIn StockSelect quantity:1Add to CartFast DeliverySecure PayEasy ReturnsDescriptionDiscover the nutritional powerhouse of verdolagas, also known as purslane, a succulent green vegetable that has been treasured in Mexican and Mediterranean cuisines for centuries. This leafy plant features thick, paddle-shaped leaves and tender stems with a distinctive tart, lemony flavor and satisfying crunch that adds both texture and zest to countless dishes. Verdolagas offer a unique combination of crisp texture and bright, slightly sour taste that makes them incredibly versatile in the kitchen. The leaves and stems are completely edible and can be enjoyed both raw and cooked. In Mexican cuisine, verdolagas are commonly sautéed with onions, tomatoes, and chiles to create a traditional side dish, or added to stews, soups, and egg dishes for extra nutrition and flavor. The plant's natural mucilaginous quality helps thicken broths and sauces while providing a pleasant, slightly slippery texture similar to okra. When preparing verdolagas, simply rinse the leaves and stems thoroughly and trim any tough ends. They can be eaten fresh in salads where their tartness pairs beautifully with cucumber and tomatoes, or quickly wilted into scrambled eggs and omelets. For a classic Mexican preparation, try cooking them with pork, tomatoes, and green chiles, or incorporate them into pozole and other traditional soups. Store fresh verdolagas in the refrigerator and use within a few days for the best flavor and texture.Product DetailsSKUBRA-MIRRDAB7-9G5EStatusAvailableCCaribbean Fresh MarketVerified Seller
