Meilleur Hoja santa pour la cuisine maison
À quoi sert Hoja santa, quelles cuisines l’emploient, et où le trouver.
Pourquoi commencer ici
The anise-sassafras leaf Mexican cooks wrap around fish and cheese: a Piper cousin of black pepper, used as a wrapper and a perfume.
Use it as a wrapper, briefly wilted over a flame, or sliced into a sauce at the end. Long boiling dulls it. The veins are sturdy; do not be afraid of a whole leaf in a steamer.
If you cannot find fresh leaves, some Mexican markets sell them frozen. Dried hoja santa is a distant cousin of the real thing.
