>>>>The other so-called 'curry plant' is Helichrysum angustifolium which
smells like the curry leaf but is not used in cooking. It has leaves similar
to pine needles or, more closely thyme leaves. This is most often the plant
that people grow in their herb gardens. ...........(SNIP).................
Anyway, the curry leaf that is similar to lemon leaves in appearance is the
culinary herb. That plant which has the needle-like leaves is not the
culinary herb.>>>>>

Greetings My dear Ras,
So, knowing me as you do...... should I cook with this pine needle plant
masquarading as a curry or just admire it from afar???
