Tsunga (Mustard Greens)
A leafy vegetable from the Brassica family.
Mustard greens are a hard, fast-growing crop that favors cooler temperatures.
Mustard greens vary in color, from purple to dark green or red-tinged, depending on the variety.
The leaves can be flat or frilly, but are typically broad, with ruffled edges.
The stalks of larger mustard greens can be quite tough, while those with smaller leaves are usually much more tender.
