Microgreens might have a reputation as a trivial garnish on top of salads and sides in the fancy, fine dining world, but these little greens pack a punch in aroma, flavour, and health benefits that belie their miniscule size, and they deserve so much more. So this week, we speak to Melissa Hsu from Tiny Greens, a thriving microgreens company in Malaysia who's trying to bring microgreens into the culinary limelight for more Malaysians.
