Thanks JP. I've started using it a lot since I found what it was and just ran out of the jar. I think it has a much more robust flavor when you pick it fresh and cook with it, but that could just be me.
Next time I'm by that house, I'm going to knock on the door and ask if I can take some cuttings. The plant is huge; it literally sticks out a couple of feet into the road. When I pull up to the box, I run it over. I left the sprig I took in the car for a couple of days, and it made an awesome air freshener!
I've tried it with pork as well, and you are correct; it gives really good flavor. I think this is my new favorite herb!
