Mizuna microgreens have a flavor profile that is often described as mild and peppery, with a slightly spicy and mustard-like taste. They offer a pleasant and refreshing flavor that adds a zing to salads and other dishes.
The best time to harvest Mizuna microgreens for optimal flavor is when they have grown to a height of around 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) and have developed a good set of leaves. At this stage, the microgreens will have a good balance of flavor and texture.
To harvest Mizuna microgreens, use clean scissors or a sharp knife to cut them just above the soil level, leaving the roots behind. Rinse the harvested microgreens gently under cool water to remove any soil particles.
It’s worth noting that Mizuna microgreens are typically harvested at an earlier stage compared to other microgreens. Harvesting them when they are around 2 inches (5 cm) in height will provide a milder and more tender taste. Allowing them to grow a bit longer, up to 4 inches (10 cm), may intensify the peppery and spicy flavors. Experiment with different harvest times to find the flavor profile that suits your taste preferences.
