Growing Herbs is Easy
An easy and tasty way to jazz-up your simple, home recipes may be as close as your own backyard, or a sunny window sill. These are ideal places to start an herb garden either from seed or from inexpensive plants you buy at the local garden center. With a little care and a half-day or more dose of sunshine, everyone can grow herbs.
3 Ways to Use Herbs (see photo)
Thyme, front left, adds flavor to soup, lean meat or a cold bean salad. Pull its tiny leaves off the stem and mince them.
Dill, rear left, adds freshness to cold shrimp salad, an omelet or vinaigrette-dressed potato salad. Chop the feathery herb.
Sage, middle right, goes well with poultry or a quiche. Add it in a small amount because of the strong flavor.
Herbs give that certain aroma and taste that adds up a new flavor to every dish =) No wonder some of the most exotic herbs cost so much. Thanks for the wonderful post!
I hear you, Mishka! Herbs and spices in small amount make flavors to excite everyone’s taste buds. I think we can all step out of our comfort zone and try a new herb or spice with great results!
