A wide range of high
quality dried herbs. Although the flavour of fresh is often preferred,
the convenience of dried is always appreciated. In addition, there
are some herbs such as oregano and thyme that intensify in flavour
on drying and will add more to a slow-cooked dish than the equivalent
fresh herb.
Highlights of this section
include wonderful lemon myrtle with a fantastic fresh lemongrass
scent and flavour, freeze-dried kaffir lime leaves that have a stunning
colour and good flavour but also give the convenience of simply
crushing or shreding the leaves and adding to a Thai curry or soup.
Also wild oregano on the branch gives a beautiful floral flavour
when the leaves are rubbed off into a salad or hot dish.
As the herbs are packed
in clear bags, if you would like to keep them for more than a couple
of weeks, it would be best to decant the contents into an airtight
container to avoid losing colour and flavour.
