Bitter aroma and strong, sweet flavor
Komatsuna is a versatile vegetable with no particular flavor that goes well with any type of Japanese, Western or Chinese cuisine. To make it even easier to use, the leaves and stems are separated and dried to bring out the flavor. You can enjoy the creamy sweetness amidst the rich flavor.
The rich aroma of komatsuna in salads is also appealing. However, when heated, the aroma tends to be lost. Komatsuna that is slowly dried at low temperature retains its fragrant flavor. It has a fresh taste that is close to raw.
