Mint
Season: Year-round
Storage: Fresh leaves can be stored in the refrigerator in a plastic bag or jar for 2-7 days.
Fun Facts: Mint is for more than mojitos, although that is a delicious application. Leaves of mint can be dark green, grayish-green or purple in color, with a lanceolate shape and serrated edges. This cool and refreshing herb is a popular flavor around the world in both sweet & savory dishes. It can be dried and used in tea, paired with lamb in mint relish, and is key to Tzatziki. It is often paired with chocolate, and don’t forget – mint ice cream!
