Mizuna


In keeping with the New Year's theme, I saw this mizuna plant (Japanese mustard greens) in a downtown community garden plot, and was captivated by the shape of the leaves, and each one different from the other.

Mizuna is a vital ingredient in ozoni, the New Year's mochi soup for good luck.

Reika, this one's for you!
