Vegie of the Day: Mizuna


Mizuna appeared in the coop vegetables this week, and it was a wonderful surprise. The leaves are tender and tasty, and make a delicious and different salad. I used olive oil and rice vinegar for a dressing.

I am not a huge fan of salads. It is almost heresy to say that in public in 2008, but it's the truth. I enjoy a salad every now and then, and if I'm eating salad, I would like different greens every day. Therefore, the mizuna was a welcome change. I searched the grocery store for mizuna, and didn't find a sprig of it, so it's probably one of those greens that you have to look for at the Farmer's Market.
