Shiso Dried
By the Ounce- Shiso, Perilla frutescens
Shiso, one of my favorite herbs to grow during the summers, is a relative to basil, but in the mint family. It is commonly used in a lot of Japanese and Asian culinary preparations, but like many common culinary herbs, can be used for a wide range of properties and benefits that are medicinally healing and beyond just delicious food choices. Shiso is a wonderful anti-inflammatory and has been said to be great for managing common allergies. It has the flavor between basil, mint and anise so it is a wonderful and delicious addition to blend into teas. It turns tea and broth a pretty slightly purple color as well.
We love Shiso!
