Red shiso (Perilla frutescens), selected by the Rungis Fruit and Vegetable Workshop, is an aromatic herb emblematic of Asian cuisine, prized for its complex notes reminiscent of cumin, lemon balm and aniseed. This 30g tray contains small leaves with an intense purple colour, offering a unique visual and flavour profile. Selected by Le Delas, this fresh product is a precision ingredient for chefs seeking excellence in presentation and aromatic balance.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Presentation and aesthetics: Its deep ruby colour and the delicacy of its small leaves make it a first-choice edible decoration to enhance sashimi platters, fish tartares or red fruit desserts.
► Culinary applications: In professional kitchens or catering facilities, red shiso is used to infuse vinegars, naturally colour pickles or add depth to baby leaf salads.
► Technical use: The 30g tray format is specifically designed for on-demand use, ensuring optimal freshness and precise management of the raw ingredient without waste.
► Preparation: The leaves can be used whole for decoration or finely chopped to release their powerful aroma just before serving the dish.
► Storage: To preserve the vibrancy of its colour and prevent oxidation, this product must be stored at a positive temperature in its original tray. It is recommended to consume it promptly after receipt to enjoy its crunch and potent aroma.
