In a large container or jar with a lid, add sugar and salt, followed by ½ cup of hot water to dissolve the sugar and salt. Mix.

Pickling

Fresh Chinese mustard greens make a great stir fried vegetable dish. For this Chinese mustard greens recipe, we used what is called in Chinese, xuelihong (雪里红) which you can find at your local Chinese supermarket.
