The Good Herb - Book Giveaway!

The next book giveaway, The Good Herb: Recipes and Remedies from Nature, by Judith Benn Hurley.

 

I bought this book a few years ago with the intention of starting an herb garden, drying herbs and cooking with herbs. I did start an herb bed at our last house in southern Indiana but I haven't had one since so that's why I'm giving this book away.

Not only does this book contain recipes and remedies but also lore and legend and tips for growing each herb.


Here's a bit of a teaser for you;

Broccoli and Potatoes with Dill (pg 94)

2 med. diced red potatoes
handful of fresh dill sprigs
1 1/4 cups of broccoli florets
3 minced scallions
2 t capers
2 T fresh lemon juice
1 t olive oil
1 t minced fresh dill or 1/2 t dried
fresh ground pepper

Steam the potatoes, covered, over boiling water to which you've added the handful of dill for about 5 minuters. Add the broccoli and continue steaming until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes more.

Tip the potatoes and broccoli into a large serving bown and add scallions, capers, lemon juice, olive oil, dill, and pepper to taste. Toss well. Serve warm as a side dish or very slightly chilled as a salad. Or use as a filling for crepes or omelettes.
