Summary
Red Veined is considered a flashy sorrel because of its bright green leaves and dark red stems and veins. It still has the same sharp, tangy, lemony flavor as regular green sorrel. Bright and showy leaves make eye-catching additions to salads. Also makes a great addition to stews, soups, and eggs. Can be cooked like a vegetable. Leaves are best picked when young since leaves become tough when mature.
