Red Shiso Microgreen Seeds
Red shiso has a taste that is difficult to describe. It's a mixture of flavours with hints of curry, mint and basil. Red shiso microgreens are often used as a garnish, but they can also be added to salads and used in sushi rolls.
Shiso seeds must be soaked in water for at least 12 hours before planting. This helps soften their thick shells and activates germination. Spread seeds over your growing medium and cover them with a tray. Mist seeds twice a day and after 5 days remove cover tray. Continue to mist until shiso is large enough (1 cm) to be bottom fed.
