Thai cooking...I'm trying to find the ingredient in Turkey, but it's difficult without knowing what it is called. Every dictionary has failed me so far...

limonotu
Some articles on Thai cousine in Turkish mention \"limonotu.\" According to another source its scientific name is Melissa officinalis (LABIATAE)but I am not sure whether it is the same one.
The following link may give a hint on where to find it:

Another name is \"limon yaprağı,\" there are some recipes using that name.

Comment: "Thanks! I had actually toyed with the idea of asking for limon cimi, but since even my wife (who is an expert in cooking) doesn't seem to know it, I thought there must be something else. I'll try the shopkeeper for limon otu..."

Limon otu
This may be a direct translation and I'm not sure whether it was translated correctly in the references. A small hint, find the latin species name and then do the search in web pages in Turkish.

Umit Altug
: A direct translation, but it is most likely to be true. In a vegetarian cooking book published in Turkish, it was translated as "limon çimi"!!!

Doğrudur, Barış Manço'nun programında limestone da limon taşı olarak çevrilmişti.
