Komatsuna
Komatsuna is a typical Japanese leafy vegetable. Komatsuna, also known as Japanese Mustard Spinach, is a Japanese green that has been known in North America since at least the 1930s. It has thick, smooth, glossy green leaves of an oblong shape.
Storing and Cooking
Store Komatsuna loosely in plastic bags in your refrigerator drawer.
It is delicious used in stir-fries, boiled, steamed, pickled or added to soups, stews, or used fresh in salads. Komatsuna's tender leaves remain delicious, even when plants are large. Delicate mustard flavor makes it nice for braising, too. Its tender leaves, as well as its flowering stems, are used raw or are cooked and have a flavor that falls between mustard greens and cabbage.

"To laugh often and much;to win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;
to earn appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty;
to find the best in others;
to leave the world a bit better;
to know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived;
this is to have succeeded."
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
