Rocket regrown from last year

[lili2010]

I grew some rocket from seed last summer. Amazingly the few leaves left survived the winter, including a layer of snow that spent quite some time on top. It has started to regrow now beautifully. Can it be eaten, or will it be bitter? Would it be better to harvest a load, discard it and let it regrow before eating? I'm not a great gardener so would love some tips!

I was amazed that our little rocket patches survived the winter, a friend tells me they are really hardy. Some is now going to seed but I am still picking it, and most certainly eating it and will leave it where it is and see what happens It is stronger tasting and larger than the packet stuff but we love it and chop it and it couldn't be fresher. It's the little things in life...

Thanks, will pick it tomorrow and enjoy! Nothing I grow usually survives, so it must be hardy!
