Herb week has got my mouth watering and craving fresh herbs. Great job to the authors of the fantastic articles this week. Thumbs up Thumbs up

A few years ago, I was doing a little talk on seeding starting herbs. As an added bonus, I had invited a friend that is the Chief Culinary Instructor from our local college. He spoke of the flavor affinities, how to use different herbs in cooking (as in add at 1st, mid-way or at the end and only fresh). He had everyone drooling and eager to grow some herbs. His recommendation to all the gardeners was this book.

Anyone growing herbs or any edibles should have a look at this book. It is NOT a cookbook. The entire book covers flavor affinities (what tastes good with what). I love this book and it is so special, I would recommend a hard cover.

The Flavor Bible by Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg

I have just done Joanne. I look forward to reading it.
The problem is that when you are young your life it is ruined by your parents. When you are older it is ruined by your children.
