I had to rescue my lemon balm from snails and slugs and now it got over this attack. I don't know why, but my neighbour's lemony balm looks much better.
Lemony balm is an ingredient of Germany's famous abbey medicine. The nun Maria Clementine Martin invented the remedy, an alcoholic extract from herbs and medical plants. I used it for
Lemony Farfalle
I halved this recipe and used whole-meal pasta. Delicious with a very lemony taste!
