Dille Bundle foiled

Usage

Dried dill should be avoided if possible, as it has a much weaker aroma compared to fresh dill.

If you want to make it last longer, it is better to freeze it.

Already cut dill can also be kept in the refrigerator for several weeks if it is kept moist.

The mild and herbaceous aroma of dill harmonizes best with fish such as salmon, trout or pikeperch. The dill is pounded together with basil, lemon, coriander, salt and pepper in a mortar to form a paste, the fish is rubbed with it or marinated and left to infuse in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours before preparation.

Furthermore, the herb is also often used for dishes without a very pronounced flavor of their own, such as salads, soups and light sauces.

On the one hand, the seeds of dill are used, and on the other hand, the leaves. If it is processed fresh, the stalks can also be used for cooking.

Info: Dill is a classic spice herb and is also used for pickling cucumbers, hence the alternative name - cucumber herb.

Taste

Dill has a sweet taste above all, which is enhanced by a spicy to tart component.

Dill seeds have a rather bitter taste reminiscent of caraway. The younger the dill leaves are, the more intense the spice tastes.

Storage recommendation

Store fresh herbs in an airtight container or a tightly sealed freezer bag in the refrigerator to preserve their freshness.

Tip: Wrap the herbs in damp kitchen paper before storing them to keep them fresh for extra long.
