It is an excellent source of vitamins A and C. It is a wonderful addition to salads, soups and stews. Parsley goes in almost in any dish. It is said that infusions of parsley are good for bladder infections. THYME: Aromatic low growing bush or creeping herbs, ideal for rockeries, borders, or along pathways. Pretty pink or purple blossoms are a favorite of honeybees. Culinary and medicinal value. Fresh Thyme has a pungent minty, light-lemon aroma and is widely used to flavor vegetables, soups, sauces and many other dishes. Thyme has been used to treat sore throats, coughs, and colds. It is an expectorant, diaphoretic, and antibiotic.CILANTRO: Cilantro or Coriander leaves are used widely in the cuisine of India, Mexico, the Orient and the Caribbean. For thousands of years it has been appreciated for its culinary and medicinal properties in South Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America. Add cilantro to your salsa to get an authentic flavor. BASIL: Basil has a pungent flavor that some people say is a cross between licorice and cloves. It is a key ingredient in Mediterranean cooking, essential to such dishes as pesto, spaghetti sauce, pizza, etc. Basil’s Greek name, basileus, means king. Basil is used as a digestive aid and has a slight sedative action. OREGANO: Oregano is related to marjoram and thyme but it is not as sweet as marjoram and has a stronger, more pungent flavor and aroma. Since it is pungent, be cautious with its use. Use in Mediterranean tomato based dishes and Mexican dishes. Use infusions of Oregano leaves to treat indigestion, coughs, headaches, and delayed periods. Oregano flowers in July with inch long shoots of tiny pink flowers. CHIVES: Chives taste like sweet mild onions and suit just about any flavor. Mince and use as a garnish, or tie whole leaves around steamed carrots or asparagus. Use the flowers as a garnish or in salad and herb vinegar. Insects dislike it and so stay away from not only the chives but also other neighboring plants. SAVORY: Savory has an aroma and flavor and is somewhat like a cross between thyme and mint. Savory adds a piquant flavor to many dishes—often called the bean herb because of the excellent addition it adds to peas, beans, or lentils. Also excellent in chilled vegetable juices. Summer Savory is said to be effective in treating diarrhea, upset stomach, and sore throat. GARLIC CHIVES: This herb is similar to chives but tastes more like garlic. Put them in dishes where one might traditionally use garlic either fresh or cooked. MUSTARD: sharp flavored leaves are excellent in salads and sandwiches or cooked. Harvest when young and tender. Repeat sowings for a continuous crop. Taken internally mustard stimulates the appetite and aids digestion. Young mustard greens are delicious stir-fried or steamed.DILL: Fresh dill has a tendency to lose its fragrance during cooking so should be added to the dish towards the end of the cooking process. It is used to flavor many dishes. Dill dispels flatulence, settles the stomach, stimulates the appetite, and relieves colic. It is useful to nursing mothers as it encourages milk flow and relieves breast congestion. SAGE: This herb is used for cooking but has also been considered as a medicinal herb.. Made into a tea it has excellent medicinal benefits. The tea is an effective mouthwash for combating mouth ulcers and gum infections. Sage helps dry up the milk flow and is useful in treating Ammenorrhea, and painful periods. Sage is wonderful in the kitchen or aromatic garden.
