Water Spinach SEEDS

Water spinach is a delicious veggie cultivated throughout Southeast, South, and Eastern Asia. It’s a leafy green that’s actually part of the morning glory family and not related to spinach at all. It comes in both white-stem and green-stem varieties and is actually an invasive species, so great care should be taken when growing the plant.

Water spinach is most often served in a stir fry with flavors like salt, garlic, and ginger. It’s an excellent pairing for fermented tofu but can also be served with shrimp paste or other sauces. 

Water spinach is harvested year-round in some areas but is considered “in season” during the summer and early fall
