Native Wintercress - Barbarea australia

Native Wintercress is a small native vegetable found sparingly along riverbanks in Tasmania. A particularly palatable species, it’s often a preferred grazing plant for many animals, contributing to its endangered status in Australia.

This plant belongs to the Brassica family alongside kale, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, brussel sprouts, mustard plants and other types of cress. Similar in flavour to a strong, peppery rocket (with a bit of bite!), Native Wintercress can be enjoyed fresh in salads or cooked in stir-fry, casseroles, muffins, potato bakes and other savoury delights.

All the above-ground parts of this herbaceous perennial are edible — leaf, stem, flower and seed — simply pluck and graze as the plant grows.
