Red Giant, Indian

The Red Giant Mustard is an India Mustard, also referred to as Giant Japanese or Miike Purple. It is easy to grow, vigorous and is good in stir fries, quickly boiled, or pickled. Plant early in spring or mid-summer for fall harvests. Grow 1’ tall with large, slightly fringed leaves of a deep purplish red. The Red Giant Mustard is winter-hardy and slow to bolt. Indian mustard is relatively resistant to pests & disease. Flavor is mustardy, not really “hot” until it starts to bolt. In addition to spicing up salads, try a few leaves on a sandwich.
