The Quest for Agretti (Salsola Soda) in the United States
In the United States, finding agretti can be a bit of a treasure hunt, owing to its relatively low profile in American cuisine. However, with an increasing interest in diverse and global food experiences, agretti is slowly carving out a niche for itself.
Farmers’ markets, particularly those in regions with a strong Italian-American presence such as the Northeast and Midwest, are an excellent place to find agretti, especially during its peak season in the spring. Specialty and gourmet grocery stores may also stock agretti, often in the international or fresh produce sections.
Or, Grow Agretti Yourself!
Online platforms are another reliable source for finding agretti seeds or plants. Websites dedicated to heirloom and exotic plants often have agretti available, especially in the early spring when the planting season begins. It’s also worth reaching out to local gardening clubs or horticultural societies, as they may have members who grow agretti and are willing to share seeds or cuttings.
