Mizuna is highly versatile, performing equally well as a salad green (it can easily make up to 50% of a salad before becoming overpowering) and as a standout in cooked dishes, where it is delicious stir-fried or quick-pickled. It is fast-growing and relatively untroubled by pests, as long as it is sown after the flea beetle feasts of late spring. (For early Mizuna, consider using some row cover.)
