Silverbeet varieties and best uses

The conversions above are the same whatever variety you use; the difference is what each is good for. Here is how the common silverbeet varieties compare.

Variety	Best for
Green (Swiss Chard)	All-purpose use in soups, sautés, and frittatas: classic white stems with large dark leaves.
Rainbow Chard	Salads, sides, and garnishes: same flavour as green but with colourful red, yellow, and orange stems.
Ruby (Red Chard)	Salads, pickling, and colour in cooked dishes: deep red stems that bleed colour when cooked.

Which should I pick?

Green silverbeet (Swiss chard) is the supermarket default and the best all-purpose choice for soups, sautés, and frittatas. Rainbow or ruby chard carries the same flavour with colourful stems, so use it where the look matters, in salads and sides. Strip the thick stems before measuring if your recipe counts leaves only, since they add bulk without cup volume.
