    Have you tried cooking with mizuna yet? Add this nutritious leafy green into your diet with our 14 Healthy Mizuna Recipes round-up.

    14 Healthy Mizuna Recipes

    Mizuna is a Japanese leafy vegetable with dark green serrated leaves. It’s often compared to arugula but mizuna has a milder mustard-like peppery flavor and fresh crisp taste.

    This leafy green is high in nutrients, including vitamins A, C and K and rich in antioxidants.

    You can find mizuna at farmers’ markets, whole food shops and Japanese grocery stores.

    It can be eaten raw in a salad, stir-fried or stirred into a soup or a hot pot dish just until wilted.
