How to Add Herbs and Spices to Food HOW TO ADD HERBS AND SPICES TO FOOD HOW TO ADD HERBS AND SPICES TO FOOD With a few exceptions, use herbs and spices sparingly, to enhance and accent other flavours rather than dominate them. For starters, try ½ teaspoon of spice for a dish that serves four to six. (For herbs, use ½ teaspoon powdered, 1½ teaspoon dried, chopped, or 15 ml fresh chopped.) Because oils are con- centrated in the drying process, it takes about half the quantity of dried herbs as fresh. To release the flavour of dried herbs, crumble them in your hand before adding them to your dish. Add whole spices during cooking to allow their flavours to per- meate the food. When you use whole, dried spices in cooking, tie them in a cheesecloth or metal tea strainer for easy removal. Add ground or cut herbs and spices midway or towards the end of your cooking time, so their flavours won’t dis- sipate. For uncooked foods, such as salad dressings, fruits or juices, add spices and herbs several hours before serving to allow flavours to blend. For salad dressings, add the spices to the vinegar and allow to stand before adding the oil. Allow for the buildup of intensity with red pepper or spice blends containing red pepper. First taste tests often seem mild. Which Spice to Use. The correct spice or herb for any food is the one that tastes right for you. When experimenting with a new spice or herb, crush some of it and let it warm in your hand; then sniff and taste it. If it is delicate, you can be bold and adventurous. If it is very strong and pungent, use a light hand the first time that you use it. When you’re at a loss about what to add to a dish, try something from the list below. Beans Avocado leaves, cumin, cayenne, chilli, epazote, mexican oregano, oregano, parsley, pepper, sage, savory, thyme Beef Aleppo pepper, basil, bay, black pepper, chilli, dhania, curry, cumin, garlic, kebsa spices, marjoram, mustard, oregano, parsley, pepper, rosemary, sage, savory, tarragon, thyme Breads Anise, basil, caraway, cardamom, cinnamon, coriander, cumin, dill, garlic, lemon peel, orange peel, oregano, poppy seeds, rosemary, saffron, sage, thyme, zatar Cheese Basil, caraway, celery seed, chervil, chilli, chives, corian- der, cumin, dill, garlic, horseradish, lemon peel, marjoram, mint, mustard, nutmeg, paprika, parsley, pepper, sage, tarragon, thyme Chicken Aleppo pepper, allspice, basil, bay, cinnamon, chilli, curry, dill, fennel, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, mustard, paprika, pepper, ras el hanout, rosemary, saffron, sage, savory, star anise, sumac, tarragon, thyme Eggs Basil, chervil, chilli, chives, curry, dill, fennel, ginger, lemon peel, marjoram, oregano, paprika, parsley, pepper, sage, tarragon, thyme Fish Anise, basil, bay, cayenne, celery seed, chives, curry, dill fennel, garlic, ginger, lemon peel, mustard, oregano, parsley, rosemary, thyme, saffron, sage, savory, star anise, tarragon, marjoram, zatar Fruits Allspice, anise, cardamom, Chinese 5-spice, cinnamon, cloves, coriander, ginger, mint Lamb Aleppo pepper, basil, bay, cinnamon, coriander, cumin, curry, dill, garlic, kebsa spice, marjoram, mint, mustard, oregano, parsley, ras el hanout, rosemary, savory, tarragon, thyme Potatoes Basil, caraway, celery seed, chervil, chives, coriander, dill, marjoram, oregano, paprika, parsley, poppy seed, rosemary, tarragon, thyme Salads and Salad Dressings Basil, caraway, celery seed, chives, dill, fennel, garlic, horseradish, lemon peel, lovage, marjoram, mint, mustard, oregano, parsley, rosemary, sumac, tarragon, thyme Soups Aleppo pepper, basil, bay, chervil, chilli, chives, cumin, dill, fennel, garlic, marjoram, parsley, pepper, rosemary, sage, savory, star anise, thyme Sweets Allspice, angelica, anise, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, fennel, ginger, lemon peel, mace, nutmeg, mint, orange peel, rosemary, star anise Tomatoes Basil, bay leaf, celery seed, cinnamon, chilli, curry, dill, fennel, garlic, ginger, gumbo filé, lemongrass, marjoram, oregano, parsley, rosemary, savory, tarragon, thyme Vegetables Chilli, chives, curry, dill, marjoram, parsley, savory, thyme.

  • Chervil (Pronounced SHER-Vil) Is a Delicate Culinary Herb Used Frequently in French Cuisine
    PO Box 218, Half Moon Bay, CA 94019 Phone: 650 726 4980 - Fax: 650 726 2991 Email: [email protected] To Grow a great Garden, Start With Amazing Seeds Chervil (pronounced SHER-vil) is a delicate culinary herb used frequently in French cuisine. It is a member of the parsley family with a mild flavor. This spring herb is often used in egg dishes. It is sometimes called French parsley. Chervil takes like a delicate cross between tarragon and parsley. Chervil has a mild flavor with hints of licorice or anise, but without those flavors coming through strongly. Chervil leaves are delicate and curly, somewhat resembling carrot greens. They are a little paler and have frillier leaves than flat-leaf parsley. Some bunches have tightly-closed leaves. You may find bunches that have blossoms, but you should avoid those because the herb will have turned bitter. Uses for Chervil…..Because of its delicate flavor, chervil is usually included in recipes, such as salads and soups It is added at the last minute as the flavor won't hold up in prolonged cooking; a good addition to omelets and is commonly used in making a classic Béarnaise sauce. It is included in the fines herbs blend, which is used in French cooking on poultry, egg dishes, and in salads. If you have chervil available, you might want to use it in herb infused oil, herb butter, or herb pesto to use with fish, poultry, eggs, soups, or salads. For example, use it in a recipe for roasted cod with wine and herb butter.

  • Taxonomy, Origin and Importance of the Apiaceae Family
    1 TAXONOMY, ORIGIN AND IMPORTANCE OF THE APIACEAE FAMILY JEAN-PIERRE REDURON* Mulhouse, France The Apiaceae (or Umbelliferae) is a plant family comprising at the present time 466 genera and about 3800 species (Plunkett et al., 2018). It is distributed nearly worldwide, but is most diverse in temperate climatic areas, such as Eurasia and North America. It is quite rare in tropical humid regions where it is limited to high mountains. Mediterranean and arid climatic conditions favour high species diversification. The Apiaceae are present in nearly all types of habi- tats, from sea-level to alpine zones: aquatic biotopes, grasslands, grazed pas- tures, forests including their clearings and margins, cliffs, screes, rocky hills, open sandy and gravelly soils, steppes, cultivated fields, fallows, road sides and waste grounds. The largest number of genera, 289, and the largest generic endemism, 177, is found in Asia. There are 126 genera in Europe, but only 17 are en- demic. Africa has about the same total with 121 genera, where North Africa encompasses the largest occurrence of 82 genera, 13 of which are endemic. North and Central America have a fairly high level of diversity with 80 genera and 44 endemics, where South America accommodates less generic diversity with 35 genera, 15 of which are endemic. Oceania is home to 27 genera and 18 endemics (Plunkett et al., 2018). The Apiaceae family appears to have originated in Australasia (region including Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand, New Guinea, New Caledonia and several island groups), with this origin dated to the Late Cretaceous/ early Eocene, c.87 Ma (Nicolas and Plunkett, 2014).

  • Wild Chervil Factsheet
    K. Weller FACTSHEET APRIL 2019 Wild Chervil Anthriscus sylvestris About Wild Chervil Native to Europe, Wild Chervil is thought to have been introduced through wildflower seed mixes. It will take over many habitats, but particularly thrives in wet, disturbed soil. It is very difficult to remove because of its long taproot and tendency to grow near bodies of water, which make many herbicides unusable. Wild Chervil competes with native plants species and hay crops, harming both the economy and environment. Legal Status Noxious Weed (Regional), BC Weed Control Act S. Dewey, Bugwood.org Fruits: Each flower produces two joined seeds about 6-7mm in length. They are smooth, shiny and dark brown. Similar Species: There are a few species that can easily be confused with Wild chervil. Some include Bur Chervil (Anthriscus caucalis), Rough Chervil (Chaerophyllum temulum) Wild chervil Daucus carota Anthriscus sylvestris and Queen Anne’s lace ( ). Bur chervil can be Code = WI n = 1246 IAPP July 2017 easily distinguished from Wild chervil by its rounder and lighter Sites per 10km block squares 1-10 green leaves.
