Hi,

Im sorry if im posting in the wrong section..If so please move to the appropriate section...

Recently i bought some herb thinking it was mint but later came to know that it was not mint and after googling i got the name Lemon Balm and yes when i rubbed the leaves it has the scent of lemon..

I dono what to do with that...R we using the herb in india? If so What is it called in tamil and how do we use it..

It is said that it is used to treat fevers,nervous disorders etc etc...

Can we include fresh leaves in the recipes and if so how?
