What's the difference between saag and palak??

Re: saag

Palak is spinach and Saag is mustard greens - it has a bitter flavour compared to spinach.

Re: saag

Both are yummy but i wouldn't say they taste the same, you can definately taste the distinct taste of saag

saag :hinna:

Re: saag

Mooli ke patte and palak combined together also taste quite similar to sarson ka saag. Another time, I had got some mooli (whose leaves were already seperated at the store itself) grated it, squeezed some of its juice, and added to palak and that tasted quite similar too. This occured to me when I was searching for fresh saag and couldn’t find it anywhere in summer…and then I remembered what I studied in my Botany classes during college - that both sarson and mooli belong to the same “Brassicaceae” family. :smiley:

Thats interesting :k:

Re: saag

I love Saag as well, I eat at least twice weekly, I used to cook, but got tired of lot of work. So now I buy " packaged one" Its Haldi ram’s brand which is “Punjabi Sarsoon ka saag”, real close to what I used to eat back home. When I was cooking, I tried to find “Bathou”, don’t know name in English but couldn’t find.

Thanks honeybeez](http://www.paklinks.com/gs/members/honeybeez.html), I just remembered that my mother used to use molis’ in saag, not only pattey, so I will try these with Palak.
