Lemon balm’s mint-like leaves have a bright, citrusy aroma and a lemony flavor that’s almost bitter with a slight nuttiness.  They can be used in a wide variety of dishes as a garnish or ingredient.

These lemon balm leaves are referred to as a “petitegreen”.  This means that they are somewhat older than a microherb, making them larger and more impressive while offering fairly similar flavor and tenderness to a true microgreen.
