京水菜
京都のみず菜は千筋京みず菜ともいわれ、葉柄が繊細で細く白く、葉の緑とのコントラストが実に美しい野菜です。一株で4kgを超えるような大きなものが多かったのですが、最近では小株のうちに早取りされた小袋みず菜が人気を呼んでいます。 軟らかく、かつシャキシャキとした歯ざわりの「京みず菜」は、鍋ものはもちろん、サラダ感覚で周年味わえる現在の京野菜の代表選手となっています。
Kyo Mizuna is soft, and crisp and is naturally suitable for hot pot dishes, but also good for salads. It represents one of Kyoto’s vegetables (Kyo-Yasai), which can be enjoyed all year round. It has deep-cut leaves as its main characteristic. Mizuna is believed to have been cultivated in Kyoto since before the Edo period, as records of “Yoshufushi” Magazine report that is was cultivated around Toji Temple and Kujo neighborhood. Kyoto’s Mizuna is also called, Sensuji Mizuna. It has very thin, delicate, white leaf stalks, which contrasts beautifully with the green.
京都的水菜是京都野菜的代表。嫩又帶有爽脆口感,菜水份含量高,味道清新自然,可以放入火鍋或者做沙津。如今不只日本的餐桌,中國不少沿海地區已經引進水菜這個品種,因為其涼爽的口感,作為蔬菜色拉的配菜非常合適。在日本,水菜作為一種主要用於生食,也是火鍋料理不可缺少的食材。
