This looks really good. Watercress is supposed to be a super vegetable - meaning it's super good for us! I will have to try this.

How do you select your watercress? I've seen it in the stores, but never bought any.

I look for crisp dark green leaves. You want it crisp not soggy or slimy feeling. and actually if you smell it it has a slightly spicy smell to it since it has a peppery taste to it.

I just bought one bunch of organic watercress at Earth Fare Market. It was over $2.50 and it's a small bunch. I guess I'll scale down the salad. I didn't realize watercress would be so expensive.

I should check at Kroger or Walmart next time. It really tastes good - I tasted the leaves to check!
