Verdolaga: Tangy, Tender, Naturally Nutritious
The traditional green with a flavor all its own.
TANGY, TENDER, TRADITIONAL
Verdolaga, a Traditional Green With Real Character
Verdolaga—purslane—brings a tangy, slightly citrusy flavor and tender, succulent texture prized in traditional Mexican stews like verdolagas con carne de puerco. Naturally rich in nutrients, this leafy green is enjoyed both cooked and raw in salads. At Latin Specialties, we source verdolaga for consistent quality and freshness, from field to case.
