About Red veined sorrel leaves
This is a small mixed group that holds two different trades, and a buyer should read it carefully. Shiso, red-veined sorrel, kaffir lime leaf and snow pea leaves are culinary — they go into the dish. Lemon leaf and ruscus are plating and display greenery, sold by the bunch for the look of a platter and not to be eaten. The pack forms follow the same split: culinary leaves come by the count case or by weight, the display greenery by the bunch.
Buying notes
Kaffir lime leaf is the outlier: it is quoted for a small pack and should be budgeted as a seasoning rather than as a green, while snow pea leaves are listed in two case sizes and bought by the pound of leaf. Display greenery runs on its own rhythm — it holds far longer than the culinary leaves and is not a weekly line for most kitchens.
