Small as they are, herbs are pleasant and easy to breed. If you use you when cooking, you have the option of changing the aromas of your dishes in different ways. The freshest of them are ideal for soups, stews, vegetables, pasta, salads and bread.

Different types of herbs create different tastes in food. If you are new to the use of herbs, you are slowly working on it. If you only add a little at once, you can adapt over time until you have it right. If you get used to cooking with herbs, you will get to know the best that can be associated with certain foods. The storage of herbs is also not difficult. Freshness also stay in the fridge for several days. But as soon as herbs are frozen, remember that they are best only used for cooking and not used as a side dish.

For example, basil is combined with tomatoes, oregano with sauces, rosemary with roast and chives with butter or cream cheese. Although these herbs are not limited to these objects, they will see them most often in this way. If you believe that Oregano can be ideal for a certain food, let your imagination run wild and try it out. You never know that your experiment will discover a new -fashioned recipe that is perfectly flavored with the herb.

You will also see that even the simplest meal can appear like a gourmet enjoyment, no wonder why gourmet masters are masters in combining herbs with food. You can even produce herbal vinegar for your salad dressing and herbal oils that you can use for recipes that require oil. You can create your own strongly tasting marinades and inspired spreads and rubs. You can make herb butter by mixing butter with chopped fresh herbs. You will enjoy it every time you prepare a recipe that requires vinegar, oil or butter to use your own herbal mixtures. Really funny, is it?

Imagine how fresh herbs can beautify each dish and make it look spectacular. Imagine how you can put individual rosemary wire over your roast how you can garnish grilled fish with a chopped basil and sprinkle chopped parsley over your potato salad. I like to chop a fresh herb and mix the green pieces into my light salad dressing. The effect was great and my salad entrée has become really tingling. With your own creativity you can achieve endless combinations and delicious results.

In my small garden I love to grow basil, parsley, oregano, lemon balm, mint and a few others. Mint can overgrow your garden, so it is worth growing it in individual doses to prevent the herb from "crawling" the herb through its entire garden. My wife immediately produces a natural face mask from basil, lemon and avocados. She would powder a handful of basil by mixing it up, then threw a half avocado and a teaspoon of lemon juice. I tried the trick and there was nothing better than a completely natural face mask fresh from my garden!

These are just a few options that fresh herbs from your garden can use. There are still many funny techniques to use herbs that you can learn for your own culinary style and your own recipes. But first start planting your herbs.
