Long popular in Japanese cuisine, the beautiful, frilly, deep purple young leaves are added to salads, used to wrap sushi, and served with sashimi. Regarded as an indispensable condiment for its unique vibrant flavors, described by some as slightly gingery and by others as a blend of mint and licorice. Has strong flavors and aromas of spearmint, basil, anise, and cinnamon. Slicing it into strips accentuates these flavors. Chopped shiso buds are especially gorgeous and delicious, making a simple yet striking garnish. The seeds are an essential part of the famous seven spices of Japan, originating over 300 years ago in Kyoto.
