Preserved mustard greens are a flavorful condiment made from mustard plant leaves that have been salted and fermented. Originating from East and Southeast Asian cuisines, they are commonly used in Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese cooking to enhance dishes with their tangy, salty, and slightly sour taste. Nutritionally, mustard greens are rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as fiber, but preservation methods often introduce high sodium content, which should be consumed in moderation, especially for those monitoring their sodium intake. Preserved mustard greens can provide probiotics due to fermentation, supporting gut health and digestion. They are often used in soups, stir-fries, and as a garnish to add depth of flavor to meals. While it is a nutritious ingredient, combining it with lower sodium foods and balanced meals can help mitigate the high salt levels.
