Herbs are some of the best food we can use to nourish and strengthen over all health. They are loaded with vitamins, minerals, enzymes, trace minerals and much more. Herbs are here on earth to provide the nutrition our bodies need and they are live food. Some herbs and plants from the ocean are high in many trace minerals that our soil has been depleted of and we need daily. They are excellent foods to choose to supplement our modern S.A.D (Standard American Diet).
Many of these herbs are in our own back yard or nearby. Check with local colleges or herbalist in your area, they will be able to share with you the native plants of your area and what historically they have been used for. In case of emergency we all need to have some basis knowledge to help if no medical services are immediately available. You can also grow a herb garden on your deck or patio to add to cooking. Most herbs grow easily with very little care so why not try it. They add lots of extra nutrition and flavor.
To store dried herbs or spices keep them in a cool dry dark place in sealed jars. They will retain potency and last longer if you do this.
Cooking With Herbs For More Nutrition And Flavor
Herbs and spices have long been used to enhance flavor in cooking. The difference between spices and herbs is the part of the plant being used. Herbs are usually the green part of the plant or sometimes the root and spices are from seed pods, flower buds, roots and berries. There are exceptions to this and some over overlap.
Growing Your Own Herbs Is Easy And Handy For Cooking
Growing fresh herbs is usually very easy to grow in the garden or most do good in pots on the patio or in winter they will do good indoors also. If you keep most of them trimmed they just give you another cutting in a few days.
