We grow two types, an egyptiantan round leaved mint, and peppermint This is Egyptian mint, best used for savoury dishes (but not exclusively). It has round leaves and a slightly furry underside. It is strong in taste and you don't need much to elevate your cooking. Mint can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge, or in a glass of water.
