Herbs can transform a bland meal into a positively delicious one. All it takes is access to the right varieties, some smart seasoning, and then you’re on your way to a triumphant dish.

One of the best ways to ensure you always have the right ingredients is to grow a range of herbs in your garden. Not only is this efficient and convenient, but it’s truly satisfying to enjoy food you have grown from your own soil.

Here some of the best herbs you can grow in your garden.

Rosemary

Nice to look at and delicious to the taste, rosemary is a top garden herb. Simply totter out to your garden and pick what you need for enhancing roast potatoes, fresh bread or soups.

Lavender

A great visual and aromatic addition to your garden, lavender not only smells fantastic and lowers your stress levels—but tastes great too. Bake it into cookies, cakes or pies.

[💥芫荽控注意-滿滿芫荽拉麵🤓] . 呢幾年愈黎愈多日本過江龍拉麵店來港開分店,要如何突圍好睇當中有咩特色,呢今次要介紹嘅呢間 – 鬼金棒 就以麻辣味噌拉麵🍜為主打,當中今次就試左佢其中一款特色拉麵- [芫荽辣麻味噌拉麵]($110)另加[味玉]($15) 發覺人大左好多口味會隨之而變,以前細個會好抗拒芫荽,但大個之後發覺芫荽個陣獨特味道配上麻辣/辣野時候係非常之夾🤓愛上了餐餐都要有芫荽🙂 . 講返拉麵,可自選麻度,辣度,麵質軟硬等,第一次所以揀左小麻小辣,辣味唔算好出,建議嗜辣者可以揀中辣中麻以上😏,基本上可以叫做芫荽撈麵更貼切,因為食到底都仲有!而拉麵嘅芽菜份量亦非常多 同埋經廚師猛火炒,所以都非常惹味,反而麵身可能因為配料太多食落個陣已經被湯浸腍哂唔算彈牙, 而舊角豚肉(其實類似東坡肉)感覺偏肥,雖然幾香但食落會有啲膩😅 . 作為芫荽控黎講呢款拉麵係值得一試嘅,但如果想認真地食返佢拉麵本身我建議可以食返佢其他辣麻味噌拉麵🙂 @kikanbo_hongkong . 📍 鬼金棒 (尖沙咀) 尖沙咀金馬倫道20號地舖 . 📍 鬼金棒 (銅鑼灣) 銅鑼灣謝斐道530號地舖 . #reallyummm #reallyummm尖沙咀 #hk #hkig #hkfoodie #hkfoodblogger #hkfood #hkfoodlover #hkfoodshare #hkfoodinstagram #foodie #foodporn #foodphotography #foodlover #852 #852food #852foodie #ramen #鬼金棒 #coriander #打卡 #尖沙咀美食 #尖沙咀 #芫荽 #相機食先 #相機先食 #拉麵 #麻辣 #味噌 #kikanbo

Mint

It can be lovely to have a mint bush in your garden. Simply pick a leaf or two, and you can flavor your baking, food or cocktails in the summer.

Chives

Chives are a simple herb that can be added to many dishes, and they require very little maintenance. Keep them in a cooler area but make sure that they still get plenty of light.

Rosemary

This herb that is great for meats, fish, and potatoes can grow fruitfully all year if you give it plenty of water and light. What’s more, it will make your house smell fantastic!

Mint

Mint grows quickly and in large quantities, but doesn’t require full light, making it a perfect indoor plant.

Parsley

Parsley is another herb that doesn’t need full sunlight, so you can safely grow it in a container at any time of year.
