mizuna

Asian salad leaf

Mizuna is a Japanese mustard green with feathery, serrated leaves and a mild, slightly peppery flavor.

It appears in salads, stir-fries, and soups, prized for its delicate texture and ability to hold up under light cooking: Add the mizuna at the last minute so it doesn't wilt too much.
