Description

Green Mizuna 500g is 500g of green mizuna – the delicate, feathery Japanese salad leaf with a mild peppery flavour and deeply serrated, elegant leaves. Mizuna is a staple of Japanese salad culture. As a result, it appears in mesclun mixes, Japanese salads and as a garnish for ramen and hot dishes. Furthermore, it has a far more delicate texture and milder flavour than wild rocket, making it more versatile. In particular, it wilts beautifully into warm dishes and soups where its delicate character is an asset.

About Green Mizuna 500g

We source our vegetables and seasonal produce from specialist growers across Britain and Europe. In particular, we select every variety for its flavour, condition and provenance. As a result, the produce we deliver meets a standard well above what most supermarkets carry. Furthermore, we prioritise seasonal and heritage varieties over commodity produce. These varieties exist because growers selected them for taste, not yield or shelf life. However, they require more care and attention to grow. In particular, heritage and specialty vegetables often have shorter seasons and more demanding growing conditions. Additionally, we work with growers who share our commitment to quality. A short supply chain from grower to your door makes all the difference to freshness. That is why Green Mizuna 500g from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Green Mizuna 500g From Us

Cooking with genuinely seasonal and specialty produce transforms everyday dishes. In contrast to commodity vegetables, these varieties carry a depth of flavour that rewards simple treatment. As a result, the best preparation is often the simplest. Furthermore, freshness is everything with vegetables. We deliver direct from our suppliers so you cook with produce at its peak. However, even the finest vegetables need a little attention in the kitchen. In particular, most benefit from minimal cooking rather than long boiling. Moreover, good olive oil, sea salt and a little acidity — lemon juice or a splash of vinegar — bring out the best in almost everything. Additionally, the variety and provenance of what you cook matters. That is why we choose these ingredients so carefully.

How to Cook Green Mizuna 500g

To get the very best from Green Mizuna 500g:

  • Use raw as a salad base or mixed with other leaves – mizuna adds a delicate pepperiness without dominating.
  • Add to ramen, miso soup or a hot noodle dish in the final minute of cooking where it wilts beautifully.
  • Furthermore, green mizuna makes an outstanding pesto – blend with pine nuts, Parmesan, olive oil and lemon.
  • Additionally, use as a garnish for sushi, sashimi or a composed Japanese-inspired plate.

Perfect Pairings

Green Mizuna 500g pairs beautifully with:

  • Soy sauce, sesame oil and rice vinegar for a Japanese-inspired dressing
  • Good olive oil, lemon and aged Parmesan for a simpler Italian preparation
  • A chilled sake, dry Riesling or a crisp Soave alongside
  • Seared tuna, salmon sashimi or a simple grilled chicken alongside

Storage: Keep refrigerated and use within a few days of delivery. Most vegetables are best stored unwashed in the fridge. However, root vegetables and onions keep well in a cool, dark, dry place. Furthermore, use as soon as possible after delivery for the finest flavour. Delivered fresh and ready to prepare.

However you prepare it, Green Mizuna 500g brings a depth of flavour and quality to the table that commodity produce simply cannot match. Moreover, cooking with the finest seasonal produce is one of the great pleasures of the kitchen.
