Nozawana is a type of leafy mustard green from the same turnip family as daikon (Japanese radish). It’s a staple in Nagano Prefecture (formerly called Shinshū) where its mild tasting leaves are often finely chopped and pickled. This special nozawana is pickled in an umami-rich seasoning and includes a noticeable spicy ginger flavor. It’s reminiscent of school gatherings in Japan where families bring their own bentos which include nozawana onigiri (rice balls).
