Salad Mixes |
This is one way to get maximum diversity into a simple order or a single planting. The original “one packet salads” came from Europe, most famously as the French ‘mesclun,’ but salad master Joy Larken mentions others like Italian ‘misticanza.’ The essential art of salad mix is blending flavors and textures that go well

Blend all during harvest. Overcrowded plants will be leggy and bland compared to better spaced heads. Thin with vigilance. Eat the tall.
