8oz bag - place chard in the refrigerator in a perforated plastic bag in the vegetable crisper section, it will keep in the refrigerator for about 10 days.

Glossy green or bronze leaves with stems of many colours including gold, pink, orange, purple, red, and white with bright, pastel, and multicoloured variations. The flavour is milder than ordinary chard, with each colour a bit different. Earthy, tangy and salty notes with tender texture. Both raw and cooked applications work but cooking will give the leaves a milder flavour. Many folks will use the stalk and leaf as two separate items. The leaf is a great substitute for most leafy greens like spinach, kale, mustard, tatsoi, arugula and collard greens. Gently sauté the entire stalk and compliment with garlic, smoked meats or bacon and white beans. Wilt the shredded leaves into pastas or atop pizzas and flatbreads. The stalks of larger plants are equally edible as the leaves, and may be used in dishes for added texture.
