Cletus' First Collegiate Dictionary of Japanese Chin Music

shiso

A beefsteak plant. Reminds us of a favorite dish:
(serves two)

  • 1 strip of raw tarako (salted cod roe)
  • 1 shiso leaf
  • 1 table spoon of butter
  • a splash of white wine
  • spaghetti

Pop open the tarako with a fork and empty the contents into a small bowl. Mix with melted butter, adding a splash of white wine, until smooth. Toss mixture with cooked spaghetti. Chop shiso into thin strips and sprinkle over the spaghetti. Add salt and pepper to taste.
