About Mustard spinach

Mustard spinach is a leafy vegetable name used for mustard-related greens. The label identifies a leafy food category but does not establish a precise botanical species or cultivar. Leaves may be sold fresh or used after cooking, and their size, shape, and colour vary.

The leaves are encountered as a vegetable ingredient in raw or cooked preparations. They may have a mustard-like, peppery, or otherwise pungent flavour, with intensity affected by variety and preparation. The name alone does not specify whether the product includes stems or which form is being sold.
