Greens
Arugula
This green has a long, lobed leaf that gives a peppery, spicy punch to salads. It is commonly used in the Mediterranean as a seasoning leaf for salads. The flower buds and flowers are also often eaten. Larger, older leaves can be quickly cooked, loosing the bite and adding a nutty flavor.
Mustard: Mizuna
This dark green mustard leaf has long, narrow, serrated leaves. It can be eaten raw in salads or steamed/quickly cooked.
Spinach: Long Standing Bloomsdale
One of the oldest commercial, open-pollinated varieties of spinach around, Bloomsdale has dark green, savoyed, oval leaves. It can be used raw in salads or cooked in a variety of ways (wilted, steamed, sauteed, long cooked).
Spinach: Matador
Another open-pollinated spinach, with medium-large, smooth green leaves.
