Primarily used to wrap sushi, shiso leaves smell like lemon balm. Flavor is a combination of parsley, cilantro, and cumin, with a hint of cinnamon. Add to salads, or sprinkle on cucumber and fish. Also called Japanese basil or mint.

Plant in late spring when soil has warmed to at least 65°F. Shiso prefers full sun to partial shade and fertile, well-drained soil. Or start indoors four weeks before last frost. Water regularly, especially in hot weather. Soak seeds overnight in warm water to improve germination.
