Herbs & Spices
by Jill Norman
Herbs & Spices is an indispensable reference that shows how to prepare fresh and dried herbs, how to use herbs and spices in cooking, and details everything that other books on the subject leave out. Containing a unique collection of recipes, from herb and spice mixes to rubs, pastes, salsas, and marinades, these authentic formulas will encourage cooks to think creatively and experiment on their own. Grouped by aroma and taste, with step-by-step preparation techniques and beautiful full-color photography, this book describes 60 herbs and the benefits of using them fresh or dried, and focuses on 60 spices from around the world, with a look at the early spice trade and how cross-cultural fusion has impacted on contemporary cooking.

Exotic Herbs
by Carole Saville
Exotic Herbs is an alluring horticultural and culinary guidebook. It unfastens the kitchen door leading to Carole Saville's celebrated herb garden in the Hollywood Hills. Here she has cultivated a treasury of intriguing and unfamiliar edible herbs, herbs that are pleasing to the eye as much as they are a delight to the palate. While marveling at the sheer variety and ornamental beauty of these herbs, the reader is soon persuaded to look beyond well-worn combinations and enhancements for cuisine - rosemary with lamb, sage with pork, parsley with potatoes, basil for the best pesto - and revel in the creative possibilities that these uniquely flavored specimens afford. Seducing both the gardener and the cook, Carole Saville demonstrates how to grow and use sixty daringly uncommon herbs. She provides planting instructions for each herb (covering all methods of propagation in and out of doors), descriptions of growth habits in different parts of the country, useful tips on maintenance and design, charming historical anecdotes, and detailed source information. With luscious full-color photography, Exotic Herbs shows how to safely and successfully harvest, prepare, and eat these herbs. Over fifty mouthwatering recipes by Saville, as well as some from several prominent American chefs, complete the enchantment.
