Shiso Red Leaves
The purple shiso leaf, herbaceous and spicy, with cumin notes.
Red shiso leaf stands out for its deep purple colour and slightly crinkled surface. Its herbaceous, pronounced taste evokes fresh cumin. It accompanies fish, mushrooms and game, and adds intense colour to autumn decoration as well as to marinades.
