Mustard Greens

Mustard Green is a leafy cruciferous green commonly used in Southern U.S., East and Southeast Asian cuisines (for example Vietnamese cải bẹ xanh), prized for its peppery, slightly bitter flavor and sturdy leaves that hold up well to braising and stir-frying. Nutritionally, Mustard Green is very low in calories and provides notable amounts of fiber and vitamin C, and is especially rich in vitamin K at 257µg per 100g, making it a good choice for salads, sautés, soups and pickles. As a cruciferous vegetable, it also contains glucosinolate compounds and carotenoids that contribute antioxidant and detoxification support, while its high fiber and protein-to-calorie ratio make it a filling, nutrient-dense addition to meals.
