MICROGREEN ‘Red Mustard’ Seeds
Red Mustard microgreens grow fast and add both colour and heat to your tray. They have deep red leaves, green stems, and a bold flavour that stands out in salads, wraps, and sandwiches. These microgreens are easy to grow and ready to harvest in just 7–10 days.
Why Grow Red Mustard Microgreens?
These greens are popular for their sharp, peppery taste—similar to spicy mustard. They’re great on their own or mixed with milder microgreens. The red and green leaves also add strong colour contrast to any dish or microgreen mix.
What Do They Taste Like?
Red Mustard microgreens have a fresh, spicy bite. They pair well with soft cheeses, avocado, cold meats, and plain greens like lettuce or sunflower shoots. Use raw to keep their crunch and colour.
