Are the MIZUNA leafs ok when they flower/after they flower(salad wise raw)or cooking when do i pick the leaves?
Can the yellow flowers be used for somethin else?

First off, thank you for educating me. I recently went up to Santa Barbara and saw the gorgeous hill sides awash in color and had NO IDEA what kind of flora I was admiring. If I had known that beautiful yellow was actually something I could EAT! My god! Lucky for that hillside I had no idea it was wild mustard flowers. Otherwise, my weekend up in SB may have been dramatically different!

thanks for everything,
Brooke

OK, that photo of the shrimps is amazing. A perfect cover shot for a cookbook or magazine. Looks delicious!

Now why didn’t I bring my camera when hiking yesterday through Mission Trails Regional Park, where the mustard flowers are a riot of yellow???? Those photos are drop-dead gorgeous! (Of course, I didn’t have a gorgeous model, either!)

Seems that shrimp is on everyone’s mind these days. Love the pairing with mustard greens!

Gorgeous! Sometimes I just really want to be you guys! BTW I am coming back to California for a couple weeks to visit the hubby. YEAH! I’ll be in Palm Springs so probably no fields of yellow mustard but at least I’ll be back on the right (or left) coast!

The first time I saw mustard seeds I fell in love and these gorgeous pictures remind me again why I love them. We’re moving to California soon and I’ll look out for them yellow fields (and perhaps a lithe figure romping among the blossoms)!
