As per request (Agent Starr), I am writing about Micro Greens – if you don’t know what they are check it out:

Micro-greens are the plant's first true leaves, replacing the cotyledon leaves. They are usually harvested with stalk or stem attached—making the unit of thin stem and just a few micro-leaves look like a sprout. These tiny, tiny leaves have exactly the same look and shape as the mature leaves that they will grow up to be if left alone. Sometimes, they are thrillingly intense in flavor.

Microgreens are filament-thin, delicate plants, the smallest possible incarnation of salad greens, herbs, edible flowers, and leafy vegetables. As a careful reading of trendy menus reveals, micro is huge: Microfennel, microarugula, micro-spinach, microchrysanthemums, and others appear as garnishes, as toppings, or as explosive bursts of flavor.
