Just before the start of the gourmet high season, Koppert Cress is introducing Hippo Tops; a decorative, tasteful and healthy alternative to the highly popular watercress.
The fresh, green leaves with a purple/red border have a spicy flavour and are a tasty ingredient in a salad. They also go well with tender meats and other vegetables. Watercress is an amazing product that can be prepared and eaten many ways.
It was Hippocrates, the founder of modern medicine, who described the good properties of watercress. The name Hippo Top is a reference to the Greek philosopher, whose motto was: let food be your medicine.....
Koppert Cress is constantly looking for natural, innovative ingredients that chefs can use to intensify the taste, aroma and presentation of their dishes. A vast network of biologists, plant experts and gastronomes support a continuous flow of products that meet the increasingly strict requirements of restaurants worldwide.
