What is a mustard green. …..In the English vegetables. If a cabbage or lettuce what would we know it as…..?
Hi, Norma. Mustard greens are known in the UK by their Chinese name “kai choi.”
Can I get these things in the U.K. I haven’t heard of half of them.
Hi, Karenclaire – yes! 🙂 The foods in our lists are actually collected from around the world (and available in the UK), but lesser known to many. They were selected because they are less mass-produced and therefore relatively unmanipulated and more nutritious and supportive of health and healthy weight management. I encourage you to take advantage of our shopping guide http://www.trimdownclub.com/where-to-buy-UK; on of the sites, http://www.goodnessdirect.co.uk, offers nice explanations of their foods. Regular supermarkets such as Tesco, Asda, and Waitrose are increasingly carrying these items as health-conscious consumers are increasingly requesting the; Holland and Barrett carries even more, of course, and Whole Foods Market even more.
As well as I like turnip and mustard greens, this soup might very well be my favorite. And I’m counting the pounds…DOWN!!
