Growing Herbs
I began the year with a goal to have my own herb
garden to use fresh basil, oregano, parsley, mint and rosemary on my recipes;
this is what I learned:
Basil is known around the world for its
wonderful fragrance and flavor. If you were to grow only one herb, this
should probably be it.
Oregano
is an easy-growing
plant for the garden or container. I need to trim the plant often to keep
flower formation at bay.
Parsley is easy to chop and the
nutritious flat leaves are high in iron and in vitamins A, C, and E. I grew the
Italian flat-leafed parsley which distinguishes it from the curly-leafed
parsley. At first the foliage might be easily confused with cilantro, but the
taste is different.
Mint as many herbs are easy to grow. I’m
adding crush fresh leaves into water for a refreshing beverage. You can also
dry leaves for flavoring dishes.
Rosemary is a lovely, easy-to-grow plant
with great culinary and ornamental value from the Mediterranean region
and member of the mint family.
