Horseradish Leaves

Horseradish Leaves are the leafy green tops of the horseradish plant, used in some regional cuisines as a peppery, mustard-like green or chopped into salads, sauces and garnishes. They have a bold, pungent flavor similar to other brassicas and are most often found in Eastern European and root-vegetable-focused cooking. Nutritionally, Horseradish Leaves are a nutrient-dense leafy green and provide a notable amount of vitamin C (70mg per 100g) along with dietary fiber and vitamin K; they make a good low-calorie way to boost micronutrients in salads, sautés or pesto. Like other members of the mustard family, horseradish leaves contain glucosinolate compounds that contribute to their sharp taste and have been associated with antioxidant and potential detoxifying benefits, while their high vitamin content supports immune and bone health.
