Although uncommon in American cooking, the citrus floral taste of lavender is
characteristic of French provencial cooking. In some parts of France, lamb
are sent to graze in fields of lavender so their meat will be tender and
fragrant.
Lavender is actually a member of the mint family and is closely related to
thyme, sage, and rosemary. The secret to cooking with lavender is that a
little goes a long way.
Not only delicious, lavender adds a beautiful color when sprinkled on
salads. Try substituting lavender for rosemary in your favorite savory
bread recipe. For a delicious appetizer, blend a small amount of lavender
with softened rocquefort cheese, spread on baguette slices and toast.
Lavender is very good with lamb, chicken, mutton, fish, and fresh greens.
When storing herbs and spices packaging is an important consideration. Plastic zip seal
bags allow aroma and taste to escape and shorten the flavor life of your herbs and spices.
We package our herbs and spices in food grade PET plastic jars. These clear, dense jars
allow you to see your herbs and spices while still sealing in all the aroma and flavor so you
get maximum life from your ingredients.
