Looking for recipes/info on bergamot mint/orange mint

16 years ago

Hi folks,

I don't post here very often, as I'm more a HD Forum person, but you all would be the ones to ask, I think...

I am always looking for new herbs and I found a plant named "orange mint" this year. I've planted it and it's happy in our yard, making leaves that taste utterly FANTASTIC. They're like cardamom and mint put together, or as I've seen it named online, bergamot-mint.

So intensely good. We just love eating the leaves, but can't figure out what else to do with it. I have found one site (below) that has some info, but nothing else.

Does anyone know of any recipes or even things they might think I should experiment with? How would one use it to flavor things?

Thanks in advance for any leads...

Here is a link that might be useful: SUCH delicious stuff this is...
