Shiso

EverydayFresh

Shiso is an herb commonly used in East Asian cuisine, prized for its complex flavor profile that combines notes of mint, basil, and anise. There are two main varieties: green shiso, which is often used fresh in salads or as a garnish, and red shiso, which is frequently pickled or used to color umeboshi plums. Both types are good sources of vitamins and minerals, adding both flavor and nutritional value to dishes.
