Latin Name: Myrtus communis
Family: Myrtaceae
Extraction: Steam Distillation

This large bush or small tree, is a native of North Africa, but grows freely all around the Mediterranean and as a cultivated garden plant throughout most of Europe. In France it is sometimes called poivrier corse' (Corsican pepper).
MYRTLE
Culinary: Add myrtle leaves and berries to soups and stews.Myrtle leaves can also be added to pork for the final ten minutes of roasting, or to lamb when barbecuing.They have a spicy flavour.
In rural areas of Italy and Sardinia, cooking is flavoured with the smoke of burning myrtle wood. Add myrtle leaves to the glowing coals of a barbecue to obtain a similar effect.
After drying, the berries can be ground and used like juniper as a spice for game and venison.
