Abstract
Ten green leafy vegetables were cultivated from medicinal plant seed. Their nutritional content, taste, appearance and texture were evaluated. Moisture content was $91.23{\pm}0.00%$ in $Saururus$ $chinensis$ (Sc), $90.39{\pm}0.05%$ in $Perilla$ $frutescens$ (Pa) and $66.78{\pm}0.05%$ in $Agastache$ $rugosa$ (Ar). The fat content was 8.89% in $Salvia$ $plebeia$ (Sp) and 0.13% in $Peucedanum$ $japonicum$ (Pj). The protein content was $11.1{\pm}0.00%$ in Ar and $0.54{\pm}0.03%$ in Pj. Total sugar content was $20.06{\pm}0.03%$ in $Geum$ $japonicum$ (Gj), $12.73{\pm}0.03%$ in $Coixlacry$ $majobi$ (Cm) and $1.04{\pm}0.03%$ in $Atractylodes$ $japonica$ (Aj). Medicinal leafy vegetables had higher glucose, sucrose and fructose, but lower maltose. Ascorbic acid content was $33.67{\pm}1.40$ mg% in Sc, $27.91{\pm}2.91$ mg% in Pa and $15.68{\pm}1.09$ mg% in At. Chlorophyll content was higher in $Perilla$ $frutescens$ var. $acuta$ Kudo than other leafy vegetables. The evaluation also showed that Cm, Pa and Aj tasted sweeter and had low acidity.
