Cooking with Basil

 

 

 

Using herbs in salad recipes

Fresh herbs are wonderful for salads.

Because they are not heated they retain their full fresh flavour and can be used in the main salad recipe and in the dressing.

They add colour as well as flavour to salad recipes, and some of the fresh leaves used should be retained to sprinkle over the top of the finished salad as a garnish.

Here in Queensland, Australia, I associate salads with outdoor entertaining, and it's fun to work out the optimum position for the salad serving table to be close to whichever herb is in best display at the time.

If you have a recipe for me could you email it to me, please? Leave the subject line as is, as anything else is automatically filtered out as spam.
