Behind the Swinging Doors: NoMI Petite Mustard Greens Salad Recipe

Last week we gave you a peek of shaved French Breakfast Radishes that are used in our signature Petite Mustard Greens Salad. Now we’re giving you the recipe from behind the swinging doors of our kitchen.

When creating this salad Sous Chef, Keith Potter, was inspired by the seasonality of mustard greens which are at their freshest during the Spring and Summer Months.
