Komatsuna Spinach Mustard "Old Tokyo”, 200 and 50 similar items

We are excited to offer this old, traditional komatsuna strain from Tokyo, Japan. Since it makes such a perfect spinach substitute, it’s hard to believe that komatsuna is actually a mustard! The leaves combine the best qualities of spinach and mustard, with a mild and sweet flavor reminiscent of spinach but with the powerful nutrition of a mustard! Frequently referred to as one of the “most underrated” leafy greens, komatsuna is simply mouth watering. This leafy green is incredibly delicious, mild, and tender. It holds superfood status in its native Japan. The leaves are very high in vitamins A and C, and it is a good source of vitamin K, folate, and minerals such as calcium and iron. Komatsuna has been revered in Japanese, Taiwanese and Korean cuisine as a mouth-watering veggie for many years, and in America chefs and nutritionally minded foodies have identified it as a delicious, juicy, and health-promoting green. Let the culinary experimentation begin! 6-12 hours of Sun Sprouts in 5-8 Days Ideal Temperature: 55-70 Degrees F Seed Depth: 1/4" Plant Spacing: 12" Frost Hardy: Yes Brassica rapa var perviridis
