Nice site and thanks for inviting me to...Hi, Paul,<br /><br />Nice site and thanks for inviting me to join your Google circle. I grow a lot of herbs: two kinds of oregano, chives, garlic chives, three types of basil, thyme, Italian flat parsley and cilantro. Your idea to give a herb garden as a gift is terrific, and I may just do that. Thanks for the idea.<br /><br />I have a different, somewhat faster technique for saving culinary herbs. I learned this from Margaret Roach's "A Way to Garden" blog. I pick my herbs, and wash and dry them well. Then, I mince them and put them in ice cube trays. Finally, I pour low salt chicken stock over them and pop them in the freezer. The next day, voila! I have have herb cubes that I pop into a labeled freezer bag. When I want to flavor a soup, casserole or stew, I add a cube or two to concoction and it really adds a nice "home grown" touch.<br /><br />It's chilly and wet in Bellingham, just south of the Canadian border on Puget Sound. I'm looking forward to my annual inundation of seed catalogs so I can believe spring is coming again!<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Benita Benita Bowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12504481066211173226noreply@blogger.com
