Shiso (Perilla frutescens) is a soft, serrated leaf known for its gentle notes of mint & basil, its distinctive flavour is bright, slightly spicy & subtly citrusy.

Hiding in the frosty soils of our winter kitchen garden are the knobbly brown tubers of the Jerusalem artichoke.

Sometimes called the earth apple or wild sunflower, it originated from the Americas and is a member of the daisy family.
