About Garlic mustard leaf
Garlic mustard leaf is the edible leaf of garlic mustard, a wild-growing plant. The leaves are typically broadly heart-shaped with toothed edges, and have a pungent, garlicky, mustard-like flavour. Young leaves are more tender and generally milder than mature leaves.
The leaves may be eaten raw or cooked, and are sometimes used as a leafy herb or green. They are most often encountered fresh, though preserved forms can occur. This entry refers specifically to the leaf, not the plant's seeds or to common garlic or mustard greens.
