I add it to tossed salads, salsa, gazpacho, tabouli, meat.... even muffins! <br /><br />We've had modest luck keeping it from bolting by chopping it back severely (Translation: Harvest it and dry it to use over time)when a heat wave is expected, and watering liberally when it's hot. <br /><br />I just got Nan Ondra's recent book Foliage from Amazon.com... sounds like it would be a book after your own heart. I'm thoroughly enjoying it!<br /><br />Cathy in MACathy and Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11985161421939096681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-4851571636343475082011-05-26T19:39:09.273-05:002011-05-26T19:39:09.273-05:00A really interesting perspective on flowers in thi...A really interesting perspective on flowers in this post.

That's about all I've done with it, but it might steam pretty nicely -- lots of greens are very nice that way. Steam or stir fry, mix with some nice noodles (or even just cheap Ramen noodles) and you have a nice little meal.<br /><br />Cilantro, I don't know. I just started liking it. I don't have those stink bugs to compare to though. :-)Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13393082652312828458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-65872282974130910832011-05-25T11:52:56.432-05:002011-05-25T11:52:56.432-05:00What's your favorite use for the Mizuna?

I can't get past it smelling exactly like the green stinkbugs we have, no matter how many good recipes people tell me they have for that particular herb. I want to like it, but...GrowingHabitnoreply@blogger.com
