Mizuna
|
The mizuna leaf has a mild mustard flavor and is said to be less peppery than Arugula. Mizuna contains vitamin C, A, iron and calcium. |
Sans salad spinner: Place mizuna in a colander that is inside a large pot. Fill with water and swirl around leaves. Drain and repeat until the water runs clear. Set aside to dry. Store loosely in cloth in a partially closed plastic bag. |
Mizuna makes an excellent salad green, and is frequently found in Mesclun. It is also used in stir-frys and soups. |
