Description
Dill is easy to germinate and cultivate and therefore is suited to novice gardeners as well as seasoned green thumbs. It is a very attractive plant, whether container grown or in a garden bed. It sports large seed heads and dark blue-green foliage.
Sweet and aromatic, the flavour is intermediate between anise and caraway. The seeds impart a sharp flavour, are used as a spice, while the fernlike herb leaves, especially when fresh, have a sweeter fragrance. Dill is certainly delectable. If ever the term “best if home-grown” were to apply to an item in the kitchen, dill would be it!
Dill enhances the flavours of a dish as well as compliments other herbs when combined. It is exceptional with vegetables, fish and mustard based dressings or sauces, lamb, potato and peas. The seeds and herb are also a flavourful addition to breads and other baked goods and for those on a salt free diet, the seed makes an excellent stand-in for salt – it is a complete culinary treasure!
