In Hokkaido I had red shiso drink and red shiso ice cream.
Wow, I wish I could order this somewhere near where I am!
shiso naughty
We do, nori outside,shiso, then seared scallop, uni, small yuzu kosho green one.
Sammich between 2 nori, dust then dip in tempura, quick fry til crispy. use as dipping vessel for a salmon rillette.
I like to throw it in fresh fruit syrups I make for dessert garnishing. It adds a nice flavor when you add it right as it’s cooling. It’s a killer with strawberries and anything sweet and tart. It bridges a good gap if something is too sour also.
Chop it up and throw it in fried rice is great.
I grew a ton of shiso this year and mostly ate it chopped fine in rice dishes, but one of my favorite uses for shiso is in tempura. Either the raw leaves battered by themselves, or an exquisite combo is any kind of white fish with a smear of umeboshi, wrapped in a shiso leaf and then tempuraed. So good.
