Binomial Name：
Chinese Name：芥菜
Other Names：Chinese Mustard
Product Description：Rich in glucosinolates, which have the potential to prevent cancer and neurodegeneration.
Glucosinolates are also known as glucosinolates. From young leaves to mature mustard, the concentration of total glucosinolates will gradually increase, which helps plants defend against pests and diseases. This is also the source of the unique bitter and spicy flavor of mustard. Found in multiple animal studies, it may help kill cancer cells or stop them from spreading, but more clinical research is needed. In addition, studies have found that the organic compounds "isothiocyanates (ITCs)" produced by the decomposition of glucosinolates have neuroprotective effects and have the potential to be developed as alternative drugs for the prevention or treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
Chinese Mustard are often dried in the Hakka area and processed into well-known Hakka names. Vegetables, Hakka sauerkraut, dried plums, etc., are widely used.

Cooking Skills：In terms of cooking, because the glucosinolates are easy to lose after a long heating time, it is recommended to shorten the cooking time as much as possible. Moreover, steaming and microwave cooking are better cooking methods to maintain the glucosinolate content, but if boiled, about 90% of the glucosinolate will be lost in the water, reducing the nutritional value.
As for how to remove the bitterness, I suggest 2 steps to ensure that mustard greens are delicious and not bitter:
be sure to boil it first, rinse it with water, and squeeze out the water before cooking.
Cook with broth or high-protein ingredients. For example: scallop mustard greens (in stock), mustard greens patty (in pork mince), chicken soup with mustard greens (in chicken broth).
