The purple leaf is lighter in flavour and is traditionally used for its colour, most famously to add the distinctive purple to ume fruit in umeboshi, a staple of Japanese cooking.  Tiny, edible flowers of all colour plants emerge in late summer and these make exquisite decorations and add a surprising burst of characteristic herbal flavour to fish and vegetable dishes and look fantastic as toppings to ice cream, sorbet and other desserts.

At present we have two variation of colour: green and bi-colour (green and purple).

Leaves can be chopped and tossed into salads in place of basil or mint, and added to soups, stir-fries, and casseroles or as the quintessential garnish to plates of sushi and sashimi. The purple leaf is lighter in flavour and is traditionally used for its colour, most famously to add the distinctive purple to ume fruit in umeboshi, a staple of Japanese cooking.  Tiny, edible flowers of all colour plants emerge in late summer and these make exquisite decorations and add a surprising burst of characteristic herbal flavour to fish and vegetable dishes and look fantastic as toppings to ice cream, sorbet and other desserts. When the flowers start to turn to seed the buds can be picked and added to soy sauce for an original, fragrant dip for sushi and sashimi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough perennial in some Asian climates shiso is an annual, \u003cstrong\u003enon-hardy plant \u003c\/strong\u003ein the UK growing fast in late spring, rapidly building height and throwing out abundant leaves, it passes to flower in late summer before dying with the first frost.

If you can grow basil you can grow shiso as the requirements are the same. In the garden plant into free-draining, moist soil once all risk of frost has passed, aim for exposure to full or partial sun. In a pot use standard compost and if available, mix in composted bark. Mulch will help in both scenarios, as leaves are more succulent when the soil is kept moist. Harvest leaves, growing tips and flowers throughout the season.
