It's one of my personal favorites, because in the local-farm-produce-box, it's one of the first tender greens I get in the spring, and it lasts well into early summer. (As opposed to kale and cabbage raab, which is available through most of the winter, but which is not a tender green.)
Which means that it's a pleasing herald of spring but something that will be around for long enough for it to be worth developing recipes around.
