Watercress has small, crisp, dark green leaves. Its flavor is slightly bitter and has a hint of a peppery taste.

Watercress is usually available year-round, but choose crisp leaves with deep, bright color. There should be no sign of yellowing or wilting.
After cutting a fresh watermelon, it should always be tightly wrapped, refrigerated and used within a day or so. It should be served cold, either in wedges or made into balls and served as part of a fruit cup or salad. Watermelon contains good amounts of vitamins A and C.
