Mizuna is a small, feathery, pointed green leaf in the mustard green family. It has a slightly bitter flavor and is often included in field green salad mixes. You may substitute watercress, baby spinach leaves, mustard greens or kale. The mizuna leaves are added last and barely cooked. If substituting kale, add it a bit earlier in the recipe, with the carrot and onion, so it will be tender. Any way you decide to prepare this dish, serve it with basmati rice or short grain brown rice. From The Whole Foods Market Cookbook
