Perilla is so easy to grow and I always have so much of it in the summer…. Love these ideas.

Thanks for the recipe. My shiso is growing like a mad man, time to give it a trim!

Thanks for these recipes. Shiso is easy to grow in a small salad garden. Leaves are good on an egg salad sandwich, instead of lettuce.

Thanks a lot! Such a nice idea to make a drink with perilla or a simple tomato salad. Going to hunt for some x

thanks! tomato works well with a similar dressing like the cucumber (i will omit the garlic and chili), I can imagine it's a nice sub for basil in many cases too!
