Eat them very which way! Young in salads, stir fries, soups, stock, and fermented in Kimchi. And here they are so easy to grow and save seed.

I use bok choy a lot, which may be cooked in similar ways. Usually: wash the leaves, shake or pat dry, shred leaves, lightly sauté in olive oil with some chopped garlic and/or ginger, add a small splash of liquid (something acidic like lemon juice, ver juice or left-over wine, a dash of mirin and tamari or fish sauce), cover and steam over moderate heat for a few minutes.

Just got hold of mustard greens seed, packaged by Kirchhoffs (a popular seed supplier, stocked at most nurseries and co-ops, alongside other brands like Mayford and Starke Ayres). The package unfortunately doesn't say what type of mustard greens it is, but gauging by the image on the pack, I'd say it looks like Southern Giant Curled.

Am growing mustard to dig bach into the soil. My question is at what stage of plants should I pull and dig in. They have not yet flowered.

A friend just told me you dig them in just before they flower, If that helps, Frank.
