Publishers Text

This book combines innovative herb garden designs, inventive, original recipes and adventurous uses for herbs in the home. Divided into three parts, "Herb Gardening", "A Taste of Herbs" and "Indoor Herbal", the first part explores the role of herbs in the garden. A commentary on historical uses is followed by an appreciation of herb garden design including original garden plans such as a formal knot garden and a paved town garden. The second part of the book is a collection of Geraldene Holt's favourite recipes flavoured with herbs, such as Potted Smoked Salmon with Dill and Quince and Apple Tart with Sweet Cicely Cream. The third part shows how herbs can become a part of your home and includes guidance on making pot-pourris, wreaths and herbal pillows, as well as the use of herbs for health and relaxation.
