Which Mint to Use?

Posted by 2kitties, July 17, 2008

I have been trying to find out about mint. So many recipes, especially ones for the summer and in Mediterranian cooking, call for it, but don't specify peppermint or spearmint! The flavors are s-o-o-o different, I can't imagine they are interchangeable. I am thinking that peppermint is used primarily in desserts and spearmint in savory cooking? Anyone, please help me - Thanks a bunch!
