Chipilin is a nutritious and versatile leafy green that is popular in Central American cuisine and can be a wonderful addition to both gardens and kitchens. With its small, rounded leaves and vigorous growth habit, chipilin can be grown in vegetable gardens or containers.
It prefers sunny to partially shaded spots and well - drained soil. The leaves have a slightly tangy flavor and are used fresh in salads, soups, and stews, adding both flavor and nutritional value.
Chipilin is rich in iron and vitamins, making it a healthy addition to your diet. For those interested in growing their own culinary herbs and greens, chipilin is a rewarding plant that can be harvested continuously once established.
