Farming: Organic Location: Egypt Lemon verbena, sometimes called vervain, is generally acknowledged to be the most strongly scented and intense of the lemon-scented plants. The scent has moved writers to poetry and prose in an effort to describe its essence, which is both crisp and relaxing at the same time. Because of its scent, lemon verbena is used to make perfumes and toilet water, as well as a flavoring in baking, jelly, and preserving. The flavor of lemon verbena has been likened to a cross between licorice and camphor, and it is widely used as an herbal flavoring to replace oregano, particularly in fish and poultry dishes. Lemon verbena was introduced to England in the 1700s and found a comfortable home there, where the deciduous bushes sometimes grow to fifteen feet in height. The plant has an incredibly strong minty-citrus scent when harvested fresh;;the dried Lemon Verbena is less overpowering and more subtle. It is native to Chile and Peru, but grows quite contentedly in other places. It is used medicinally, as are many other plants with mint or camphor content. Generally used for tea infusions, either hot or cold, and seldom found in food and capsules. As a culinary flavoring, lemon verbena has been used as everything from ice cream flavoring to a pepper substitute. The licorice and camphor content do make the volatile oils from the plant stronger than most other lemon-scented herbs, so it’s advised to use it sparingly as a flavoring.
