Mustard leaves, also known as mustard greens, are vibrant leafy vegetables commonly used in South Asian, East Asian, and Southern U.S. cuisines. Renowned for their peppery flavor, they add a zesty kick to soups, stir-fries, salads, and pickled dishes. These greens are highly nutritious, boasting an abundance of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron. Their high antioxidant content supports immune health and reduces inflammation, while fiber aids in digestion and promotes heart health. Mustard leaves are also low in calories and fat, making them an excellent choice for weight management. However, individuals with kidney issues or who are prone to oxalate stones should consume them in moderation due to their natural oxalate content. Versatile and packed with nutrients, mustard greens are a flavorful way to enhance any meal while supporting overall wellness.
