What is Lemon Myrtle
Lemon myrtle is a really robust herb. It’s used mainly in dry form and if kept in a cool dry environment it will last for a few years and still be quite usable. I use Lemon myrtle in a tempura batter. Tastes fantastic with fish, chicken or vegetables. I’m really surprised how many people comment on it, as in they really love it. Lemon myrtle tempura batter with barramundi, its simply delicious.
This is such an accommodating herb, quite simply use as you would lemons for the flavour. When you first start using it be gentle, it really does pack a flavour punch and not so nice if its used to excess. Be subtle with this robust herb and the world will be a happy one!!!
