We had a hard time limiting our choices to ten, so our list includes eleven of our favorite culinary herbs. If we add garlic, we're up to twelve! Start by planting herbs that you already use in the kitchen. Fresh really is best! Herbs add color, flavor and fragrance to your food. Plan to use 2 to 3 times the amount of fresh herbs versus dried. Start with the smaller amount and add more if desired. Herbs should enhance the flavor of food, never overpower it.
