The spinach-like leaf vegetable rich in vitamins and proteins
These days mizuna, mibuna, pak choi and Chinese leaf are all readily available in our shops and supermarkets, but they are also easily grown at home. Joy Larkom has been growing oriental vegetables for over twenty years, her gardens are famous, and her book 'Orinetal Vegetables' is a culinary classic. Chef and gardener Gerard Baker went to meet her in her garden in Ireland to find out how to grow and eat amaranth.
'Oriental Vegetables' by Joy Larkom is published by Frances Lincoln, ISBN: 978-0-7112-2612-8.
