Oriental Mix
The original Mesclun…

Originally from Nice, mesclun is a blend of baby lettuces and crucifers of all kinds. With its various shades of greens and reds, mesclun is appealing to the eye and provides a beautiful presentation for all kinds of appetizers. This original and flavourful mix of different greens can be enjoyed drizzled with a simple stream of olive oil or tossed in a vinaigrette dressing. Since 2001, Veg Pro International, Quebec’s leading producer of mesclun, has developed many combinations of baby lettuces, all sold pre-washed under the “Fresh Attitude” label. Their various and delightful flavours will not fail to please even the most sophisticated palate.

Oriental Mix… for an exotic salad

Because you know what tastes good…
Filled with exotic flavours, “Fresh Attitude” Oriental Mix will surprise you with the unique taste of its tatsoi, the spicy savour of its red mustard, the sweetness of its red spinach, the refinement of its red tango and the tanginess of its mizuna. Drizzled with a simple stream of olive oil or tossed in an Oriental dressing and garnished with citrus fruits, Oriental Mix is an exotic salad.

Good for you… Since it consists of many varieties of lettuces and crucifers, the Oriental Mix provides outstanding antioxidant qualities (it contains isothiocyanates, betalaines, flavonoids…) and is extremely high in vitamins (A, B2, B9, C, E, K…) and in minerals (manganese, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, copper, calcium…).

How to Select Your Oriental Mix:

Choose a mix with fresh, firm and spotless leaves.

How to Store Your Oriental Mix:

Store Oriental Mix refrigerated in its clamshell and check the Best Before date printed on it. Prepare and rinse your greens (if you wish to wash them again) just before serving. Since they are quite delicate, they will spoil more quickly if you handle them too much.

Savour it… year-round (production of Quebec (Canada) and Florida).

Satisfy… 2 to 4 people as a side dish, with a 5-ounce clamshell.

Oriental Mix Greens

Tatsoi:
Of a dark green colour, spoon-shaped and tender, baby tatsoi leaves have a unique and sharp flavour reminiscent of cabbage. Tatsoi is a must in Oriental Mix and is also added to “Fresh Attitude” Spring Mix and San Marino Mix.

Red Spinach:
In addition to providing as much nutritional values as green spinach, red spinach is milder and its red veins brighten “Fresh Attitude” Oriental Mix.

Red Mustard:
Baby red mustard leaves have a tangy flavour that lends a distinct spiciness to “Fresh Attitude” Oriental Mix.

Mizuna:
Saw-toothed, elegant mizuna leaves are a delicate green and provide a mustard-like tang to offset the other greens of “Fresh Attitude” Spring Mix, San Marino Mix and Oriental Mix.

Red Tango:
Crunchy, curly red tango leaves have a tangy, yet refined flavour, adding colour and originality to “Fresh Attitude” Oriental Mix.

Swiss Chard:
Green with red veins, baby Swiss chard leaves are long and oval. Their flavour is reminiscent of beet greens where they add depth to “Fresh Attitude” Oriental Mix.

Green and Red Leaf Lettuce:
Green, red or two-tone, the different varieties of baby leaf lettuces have a light hazelnut taste that subtly enhances “Fresh Attitude” Spring Mix, San Marino Mix and Oriental Mix.

Spinach:
The sweetish taste of baby spinach, its oval and graceful shape, delicate green colour and exceptionally nutritious qualities pleasantly balance “Fresh Attitude” Spring Mix, San Marino Mix and Oriental Mix.
