Description
- Tatsoi is a small, low-growing plant, averaging 20 to 25 centimeters in height and 25 to 30 centimeters in diameter, that grows a dense rosette of oval, spoon-shaped leaves. The leaves are glossy with a slight, cupped appearance, first harvested when they are approximately 10 centimeters in length and range in color from pale to dark green. The leaves also have a smooth, soft, and semi-crinkled surface displaying prominent veining that connects into a white or green stem, depending on the variety. The stems are crisp, aqueous, and tender, similar to the texture of celery heart. Raw Tatsoi has a mild, sweet flavor with nutty, tangy, and mustard-like nuances. When cooked, the leaves soften into a texture reminiscent of cooked spinach and develop a neutral, green earthiness.
