Herbalicious

Today we collected bunches of fresh tarragon, rosemary, mint, oregano and thyme from the garden to dry and store for later in the year when the fresh herbs have died down (the sage has already been dried).

We have also collected 100g of coriander seeds from the plants which are now dying back which should last us a year! I bought a large basil plant from the garden centre today from which we are going to harvest the leaves and then freeze them in ice cube trays with a little water for a taste of fresh basil in dishes during the winter .... hmmmmm, delish!
