In Japan, there is a small tree called ‘Sansho’, which fruit is often called Japanese Pepper and used as a spice. Its leaves are beautifully aromatic and they are the best addition to the sweet miso sauce. But … ‘Sansho’ leaves are impossible to find where I live. I thought about the substitute for ‘Sansho’ leaves. Something aromatic and easily available … that is Basil. I tried Basil anyway. WOW!!! It was great, though it was definitely Italian. Then a new salad recipe was made.
