Pairing principles
What pairs well with Orache?
Use butter or meat juices to coat the leaf and keep aromatic seasonings proportionate to its mild flavour. Thai basil and fish sauce suit a brief stir-fry. In more unusual applications, large intact leaves can enclose mellow elephant garlic or fine candied rind; floral dressing and small frozen dairy portions give the cooked leaf a different aromatic or temperature context.
