> What is tatsoi?

Brassica rapa ssp. narinosa
Sometimes called Asian spinach; easy to grow; very cold-tolerant, can be
sown in early spring, late summer, and early autumn (as your zone permits).
About 45 days to harvest. Low growing, in a rosette form. Leaves seem to
have a slightly nutty taste.

Thank you. I thought it might be something Asian, but I'd never heard of it.
