Wild Mustard

Wild Mustard! A great one to know. It has a very strong mustard flavour, it’s extremely common and easy to identify. Crush it’s leaves to reveal a strong mustard odour.
The leaves will be growing in a rosette and soon it will produce yellow cross shaped flowers.

Great to add to salads or to lightly pan fry just enough to wilt down, so not to lose too much flavour.

Scientific name: Sinapis arvensis

Happy foraging!!
