Valerianella Locusta, AKA Mâche is an annual plant of the family Valerianaceae. It is mostly grown as leaf vegetable. Other common English names are Corn salad, European corn salad, Fetticus, Lamb’s lettuce, Feldsalat, Common corn salad, Field salad, Nut lettuce, Italian corn salad and Field lettuce. Mâche is a salad green which helps to reduce triglycerides, inflammation, heart ailments, digestive ailments, cancer and improves HDL. It contains 30% more iron in comparison to spinach. It helps to eradicate stress, depression and fatigue. It is steamed and added to salads or consumed as vegetables. Excerpts from Healthbenefitstimes,com Learn more about Valerianella Locusta here: https://www.healthbenefitstimes.com/mache/ I decided to paint the Mâche in its early stages when it is considered to have a better taste and as you would happen upon it growing in the wild.
