GREEN PERILLA
Perilla frutescens 65-70 days. Known by many names including Shiso and Beefsteak, this member of the mint family is widely used in Asian cuisine. Perilla's subtle and complex, herby flavor has hints of citrus, anise, basil, and spices. A very versatile crop, use the leaves in salads, stir-fries, sushi, and pickling. Seeds can be slow to germinate, so you may want to soak the seeds for 24 hours before planting. Sow shallowly or cover lightly, as light is needed for germination. May also require a period of cold stratification for successful germination if sowing earlier in the season. Approximately 225 seeds per ¼ gram.
