Description
|
Backhousia citriodora (lemon myrtle) belongs to Myrtle family which occurs naturally throughout coastal Queensland rainforests. It is a spectacular ornamental tree due to both its appearance and the superb fragrance of its flowers and leaves. The leaves and flowers are used in sweet and savoury dishes or as a refreshing tea. However as boiling or baking often reduces the flavour, the leaves are best added to the recipe at the end off the cooking process and either left to steam with the lid on or made into a sauce or dressing. Enthusiasts describe the distilled oil from this tree as 'more lemon than lemon’and its used extensively to scent confectionery, perfumes, aromatherapy oil and food flavourings.
