Fresh Herbs Taste Great!
I speak from experience when I say that fresh herbs taste great! I use them frequently and generously in many tried-and-true, homemade recipes and I add them into first-time recipes, too. I grow fresh herbs in my sunny North Carolina garden so that I can cut, wash and toss them, immediately, into my cooking pot. Even now, in February, I have some fresh mint and fresh rosemary ready for harvest!

There is every good reason to add a pinch or handful of fresh herbs to your next soup, chili, spaghetti sauce or salad. Why? Because of the concentrated flavor and the concentrated nutrition. In specific herbs, there are specific nutrients like vitamins A, C, K. And, in addition, there are a host of health-promoting phytochemicals.
