I replaced the tuna with salmon in this fresh spring salad.
This is a very interesting ingredient, it's on the same note as the leaves and stems, but it taste more earthy, better. This is most widely used in Thai cuisine. You can simply crush it in a mortar and add it to marinades. It will keep the taste, unlike the leaves. It's also less soapy for those of you who don't like the soapy taste of the leaves. I'll be making an original Thai pork skewers recipe with these!
