Lemon Balm Powder

Lemon balm powder is obtained from the leaves and flowers of the plant, prized for its aromatic properties. This powder has a delicate and fresh flavor with herbaceous, citrusy and slightly sweet notes. Its scent is pleasantly aromatic and may remind of a combination of lemon, mint, with herbaceous notes.

Chef’s Advice

Lemon balm powder can be used to flavor some dishes to give a delicate aroma, somewhere between lemon and mint. Lemon balm powder can be added both in sweet preparations such as ice cream, creams, jams, tarts and fruit smoothies and in savory dishes, and it is excellent for flavoring oil or balsamic vinegar. Then added to mushrooms, this lemon balm powder best expresses its value.

What makes Ordine Contadino flowers and herbs special?

The flowers and herbs are hand-picked and within minutes brought to the drying rooms and placed on frames. The company practices natural drying by dehumidifying the air, without increasing the ambient temperature. The herbs, first defoliated, and dried flowers are placed in paper bags to be stored at controlled humidity and temperature. This process, combined with the chemical/physical/organic characteristics of the soil and the climatic value of the place (Temperature excursion/Solar exposure/Altitude) leads to a dried product with high concentration of essential oils and high color yield over time.
