    Usually the most spicy are relatives of mustard. Many seed companies make spicy leaf mixes like this one: https://www.mr-fothergills.co.uk/Salad-Leaves-Mixed-Spicy maybe try a few and see if they are to your taste?

    Hello

    I grow watercress and rocket.  They spice up a salad.
    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.

    Wild rocket is the best as far as I'm concerned. There's quite a lot of other rocket varieties too, which I intend trying next year.  :)

    Nasturtium leaves are a favourite spicy salad leaf here. 😋

    I'll start some off from seed later today.
