25 Mint Recipes From 21 Cuisines.
Cooling and sweet, mint runs through the cooking of the Middle East, North Africa, Vietnam and the Balkans — in tabbouleh and dolma, beside grilled lamb, shredded into Vietnamese rolls, brewed into tea. Nane, as it is known across the region, dries better than most herbs and is used dried as often as fresh in Balkan and Turkish kitchens. It spreads like a weed; grow it in a pot, not a bed.
