What can I say about the amazing tasting and fragrant Papalo. Many people know this herb as the American cilantro also known as Yerba Porosa, Quilquiña,, Killi, or Papaloquelite.
While there is not much known about this South American native concerning studies of its health benefits, I can say a lot about its culinary uses! It adds such a unique taste (a little different than cilantro) to dishes, and it really adds a wonderful fragrance to the air. I can totally understand why the tables of Bolivia have a vase of Papalo.
Believe it or not this heat loving herb can be propagated by seed or by cuttings and be grown in a sunny window for the winter.
The herb leaves and stems can be saved also by drying (see Lemon Grass video attached) or put into a freezer zip-lock and stored in the freezer.
Also if you want to wait and buy your Papalo plant in the spring I have bought it, as well as other unusual plants at Wiethop Nursery in St Louis, I'll attach their website. It is really hard to find, which is sad for it is any easy herb to grow especially in summer hot conditions. I will also attach my Tomatillo Salsa Verde recipe where I used this herb along with cilantro. It is so tasty!
Please subscribe and tell your friends. And as Stefan says, “Thumbs Up.”
Thanks for watching.
