arugula

来自PIE *ghers, 刺毛，词源同horror. 拼写变化历史略。美式英语写作arugula, 英式英语写作rocket.

arugula (n.)

edible cruciform plant (Eruca sativa) used originally in the Mediterranean region as a salad; the American English and Australian form of the name is (via Italian immigrants) from dialectal variant of Italian ruchetta, a diminutive form of ruca-, from Latin eruca, a name of some cabbage-like plant, from PIE *gher(s)-uka-, from root *ghers- "to bristle" (see horror).

In England, the usual name is rocket (see rocket (n.1)), which is from Italian ruchetta via French roquette. It also sometimes is called hedge mustard.

1. Add arugula; season with salt and pepper.
