Tip: The name “rocket” for rocket salad comes from the Latin name of the plant, which is Eruca sativa. The term “rocket” is derived from the Italian word “rochetta” or “ruchetta,” which refers to this particular plant. Over time, this name became associated with the salad made from its leaves, hence the common name “rocket salad” or simply “rocket” in English-speaking countries.
