The immense diversity of scents and tastes offered by aromatic herbs is a gift from nature – Records show that aromatic plants, such rosemary or coriander, have enjoyed popularity among gourmets since the times of the Romans and it is probable that herbs have been part of human culinary habits ever since the Garden. Their complex taste and healing powers unite harmoniously and provide a sensation of freshness to the palate, be they used in soups, salads or other dishes. Herbs expert Maiga Werner takes us on a culinary journey through the appealing world of garden and wild herbs. Structured by season, the book covers more than 90 different culinary and aromatic herbs which grow around the globe. It contains many mouthwatering recipes from salty to sweet, all of which feature herbs as the central element.
