Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. & Coss. var. rugosa Tsen & Lee (Cruciferae)
Description
Wrapped Heart Mustard
An annual producing abundant foliage that assumes various arrangements
sizes accounting for the large number of cultivars available. Radical
leaves are large, quick growing, obovate or lanceolate, angled or notched,
margins finely serrated, petiole stout, broad and sessile. Of the many
cultivars, two sold locally are: wrapped heart mustard and bamboo mustard.
Origin
B. juncea var. rugosa - a different cultivar with narrower leaves.
This species is possibly of African origin, but was taken early to Asia.
It has been extensively cultivated from Eastern Europe to China and Africa.
Uses
In some cultivars, the stems are used, peeled, pickled and canned. Many
others are preserved as sour-salt mustards. Bamboo mustard is a less bitter
cultivar and can be eaten fresh.
