Cooking with Herbs & Spices

LAVENDER: (levanda) 

Lavender is a wonderfully versatile herb in the kitchen. It is becoming increasingly popular as an addition to all manner of dishes including biscuits and desserts and as a garnish.

Unlike many herbs, the flavour of lavender becomes more potent when the flowers are dried. Try popping a few leaves and flowers into savoury dishes, such as soups, stews and even meaty wine-reduced sauces
