Watercress Recipes
Naomi Said:
I was making a salad recipe that calls for watercress. I found what can only be described as a tiny snail...?We Answered:
Put the snail outside someplace damp and rinse the watercress. No worries!I worked at a restaurant where they bought salad components in bulk. You'd be surprised how often flies and worms show up. Just rinse the stuff off. These things grow in dirt, with critters all over and around them...think about it.

Can anyone define how much is in a "bunch" when it comes to watercress?We Answered:
usually a bunch of watercress is judged by the diameter of all the stems gathered together and that would be about 3" - what that would be in cups I don't know .. I would hazard a guess that the leaves would be about 1 1/2 cups ...Peggy Said:

how do i use watercress?We Answered:
Wash the leaves in plenty of water to remove any dirt. Snip off the tips of the stems if they look wilted. Either tear the leaves into bite size bits or chop them. I personally like to keep them whole if they were of a small to medium size.Let me also give you this simple yet very delicious salad recipe for watercress.
1. Place whole watercress leaves in a bowl, or individual serving plates.

3. Place some mayonnaise, salt and white pepper to taste and some lemon juice in a small jar with a cover.
