Hyssop Explanation: German name Ysop - aka Klosterkraut and Josefskraut. Quite a bit of guesswork here, though I could well imagine that the citrus-minty-peppery flavour could be good with all sorts of dishes or scattered on salads. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyssopus_officinalis http://tinyurl.com/mfcnqxo Similar to mint, flowers and leaves are edible and are used for their flavouring, cleansing and medicinal properties -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2014-11-13 14:29:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The French name is Herbe sacrée - sounds pretty religious, too. Other German names are Kircheneisbeth, Klosterhysop and Klosterhyssop |
