Hoja Santa
$19.99
Rootbeer Plant
Outside of Mexico, hoja santa is not widely known, but due to cooking shows like Rick Bayless's Mexico One Plate At A Time, it has recently gained in popularity. I like to wrap chicken or fish in the dinner plate sized leaves and grill it with the meat sealed within it. It imparts an anise like flavor while the meat steams inside, and comes out very tender.
