How do you cook red shiso?

In Vietnam, red shiso replaces mint and is an ingredient in many dishes: Vietnamese pancakes, spring rolls or bún chả, crispy pork with nuoc mâm sauce accompanied by shiso. You can also use it in a vegetable salad, and it goes very well with fish.

To avoid losing flavor, add the leaves at the end of cooking so that they coat the other ingredients with their fragrance.

Our tips for successfully growing your red shiso

Red shiso can be harvested as it grows. You can start harvesting the leaves when the plant reaches a height of around 15 to 20 centimetres. Use clean scissors to cut the leaves at the base of the plant. You can also remove young shoots to encourage denser plant growth. Use the leaves immediately.
