Mustard salad

Leaves of young plants are eaten before the stems appear. They have a delicate taste and characteristic mustard odor, contain carotene, rutin, B vitamins, as well as mineral salts of calcium and iron. To have mustard greens constantly, they are sown every 20-30 days. Seedlings do not thin out, since when thickened, the greens do not coarsen longer. Leaves are cut as needed.

Mustard and spinach can be used as a compactor in cabbage and tomato plantings.
