The Barcelona Mystery Green

Some help? Anyone?

Anybody know this vegetable? It's crisp, watery, slightly salty and covered in a bumpy, translucent skin that looks like perma-dew.

We discovered it first in our fresh mesclun mix from the big Barcelona Boqueria. Later, we found a vendor who sold them alongside sea beans and arugula. She said it was a local Spanish plant with a very long name.

It's tasty and fascinating, but we haven't used it in anything other than fresh salads. If anyone knows this green and has tips on use, I'd be happy to hear all about it!
