Sweetcorn Shoots (aka Corn Shoots/Popcorn Shoots) are quick growing microgreen that is harvested after only 7 days when they are about 7cm tall. These bright yellow leaves have a very intense sweet flavour that adds a colourful, crunchy garnish to salads and other dishes.

In order to develop the sweet taste and bright yellow colour, Sweetcorn Shoots need to be grown in a warm place in complete darkness from sowing to picking - It’s imperative that the corn shoots aren’t exposed to sunlight. When they are, corn shoots develop chlorophyll in the leaves and start photosynthesising, turning the corn shoots green. This may not seem like a big deal, but exposure to light will actually turn the flavour bitter. The Sweetcorn shoots will also become more fibrous and inedible, like a corn husk.

If you were to peek under the tray, you’d see that the kernels grow thin and light yellow corn shoots. These plants are monocots, meaning they only grow a single cotyledon. The cotyledon leaves are long and flat, unfolding from a tubular stem. In fact, sweetcorn shoots kind of grow like yellow, scraggly grass leaves.

Sweetcorn Shoots are quick growing microgreens with an intensely sweet flavour and are the perfect garnish that adds flavour and colour to a dish.
