Mustard Greens Basics

In Season: Mustard greens are at their peak from January through April. Many supermarkets carry them year-round.

What to Look For: Look for leaves with a rich green color. Avoid any mustard greens that are wilted or yellowish. The smaller the leaves, the more tender they will be.

How to Store: Wrap unwashed mustard greens tightly and store in the refrigerator's crisper drawer for up to one week. Mustard greens tend to hold sand and dirt, so wash thoroughly before cooking.
