Publishers Text

Equal parts gardening guide and healthy living sourcebook, this reference teaches how to organically grow herbs and use them for cooking and medicinal uses. From propagation and harvesting to storage and preparation, readers will learn all the steps of working with herbs, including drying herbs without losing potency or flavor and how to prepare healthful teas, tinctures, and compresses. Without dry or clinical language, this resource focuses on tried-and-true applications of more than 35 common herbs, including anise, basil, chili pepper, cilantro, horseradish, mint, parsley, sage, and thyme, while a convenient chart lists many health issues and the corresponding herbs to be used as treatment.
