Description
If your recipe calls for ‘mint’ most likely spearmint is the mint to use. In the States, it is often relegated to chewing gum and mint juleps but elsewhere cooks use spearmint with lamb, savory dishes, hearty root vegetables, chocolates and other deserts. You may know it as the key ingredient in Middle Eastern Tabouli. The pungent zest of spearmint is refreshing and mellow, with lemony undertones.
