How To Grow And Handle Fresh Herbs From Your Garden Beds Or Your Container Garden

In any recipe calling for herbs, use fresh herbs. Preparing the herbs for your dish is easygoing. The more caring herbs like mint, parsley, basil and cilantro can be garnered in a bowl and snipped with scissors. This is the fastest and safest way to chop the herbs. If your recipe calls for the more manful herbs like oregano, rosemary, or thyme you should use the stripping method. Hold a branch of the herb upright in your fingers and run the fingers of your other hand down the stalk stripping the little leaves loose. The flavor will be more aggravated if you have gathered the herbs from your herb gardens or container gardens because they will be absolutely the freshest herbs accessible
