About

I have always loved mustard greens. They are slightly hot, and if cooked quickly have a nice crunch. They are also versatile, and bring something unique to the table. I have cooked them with roast pork, wrapped fish in them, and finely sliced them into salads.

I also love the inclusion of sichuan pepper in this dish, which shows how food and ingredients were traded across the Himalayas. You can also use this recipe for spinach instead of mustard greens.
