Is the mint in your recipe used in leu of Thai basil? I've seen that a lot due to the scarcity of real Thai basil, which has a flavor way different from the 'clove' scented sweet or italian basil which we are all familiar with. Mint or anise hyssop would be much more suitable than common basil. Sounds good ryan, too bad decent clams of any variety are so hard to come by where I live. I was in Seattle two years ago and I really wanted to bring Pike St. Market with me. Oh well, I don't think the locals here would appreciate the variety of fresh meat, seafood, and produce available in other places. |
