Organic Certified - Green - Mesculin Salad Mix [imp]
A mixture of leafy greens, which can vary in make up...one of our favourites!
Going back to basics of a "pure" mesculin mix...the idea of a greens mix is not simply to get any old mixture of greens. The idea is to combine four basic flavor types through a careful mixing of greens: mild, bitter/tart, piquant, and pepper/spicy. For the mild component, a leaf lettuce will typically be included. For the piquant, perhaps mustard greens. For the bitter/tart flavor, either radicchio, escarole, mizuna, or curly endive. To round out the peppery/spicy component, usually included is either arugula or watercress.
As you can see, often the components of a mesclun mix are not technically lettuces, but rather, a diverse array of greens that are chosen for their distinct flavor combinations.
