Fresh mint is so great to have around. What variety of mint is it?
I know it as orange mint π (Mentha spicata orange) is super citrusy..
Do you have any good recipes for using mint? Itβs not common where Iβm currently living, but had it in the garden when I was growing up. All I can think of is lamb.
I tried it in food but it seems to me that the strong point is to use it in infusions, hot water + about 4 leaves and you get a tea that you take half a cup and you can drool on your pillow from sleep. and in food: for sauces, it elevates them.
Ooh sounds interesting. Iβll have to see if I can get my hands on some. Thanks for the reply!
good luck in your search, PS: seeds are easier to find.
