Herbs and Herb Mixes:
- Rosemary: One of the mainstays of most herb blends, rosemary is a great addition to bakes and roasts. Its piney, woody aroma adds warmth to vegetables as well as meats.
- Sage: Strong, savoury and earthy, with notes of pine and citrus. A bit like the hills where it is grown. Enhances dairy products, rich sauces and flavours all varieties of meat and sea food.
- Thyme: Earthy and warm with sweet and peppery notes. Great in a spaghetti or a bake, in cheese or poultry dishes. When dried, thyme retains its flavours better than most herbs.
- Lemon Grass: An important part of Thai and other south-east Asian cuisines. It is a magical addition to teas and rice. Boiling in water or oil releases the citrusy aroma of lemongrass.
- Oregano: An indispensable ingredient in Italian herb blends and tomato based pasta sauces. Works great with salad dressings, eggs and in meats. Oregano is more flavourful dried than fresh.
- Peppermint: Minty and refreshing. Make everyday drinks taste fresh and cool by adding peppermint. Crush some leaves into a lassi, fresh lime soda or green tea.
- Mint: Refreshing flavour for tomatoes, potatoes, yoghurt, peas, fresh fruit salad and lemonade. Commonly used for treating stomach ailments and aiding digestion.
- Parsley: Aromatic and strong. Use as a garnish, or in salad dressings, soups and sauces. Parsley is one of the most widely used herbs across the Middle-east, Europe, north America and Brazil.
