I'm currently compiling a list of herbs & spices I don't have and refreshing my existing spices and have come across Epazote. I don't even know how to pronounce it, let alone know what to use it for. The literature I have suggest to use it in a similar manner to oregano. I see the MG bought...

Recipe I intend to cook says '1/2 cup of fresh Sage, finely chopped' So is that 1/2 a cup before or after chopping? as it could make a big difference. Take something like parsley for example which is springy and takes up a lot of room when not cut; the same recipe says '1/2 cup minced fresh...

I doubt I'll get this made before the challenge ends, but I wanted to enter it anyway. We've made this multiple times, but not in a very long time. It could be a starter, part of a light lunch or a side. Makes a 9-inch tart, can be doubled for 2 easily. You will need a 9 inch tart pan with a...

This thread is meant for the pagans/witches/and other magical folk under us who use cooking as an expression of their beliefs and religion. What is it? Kitchen witchery is for folks who want to practice magick and witchcraft with an emphasis on cooking, food, and mealtimes. Feel super...

I know we've had many threads on using oils, but does anyone actually make their own herb oils? Having been served some home made parsley oil whilst on holiday recently I am keen to have a go at making some. We have a glut of parsley in the garden, and some good quality olive oil brought back...

This recipe is vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free. The Thai basil in this recipe was home-grown. This idea just sounded relaxing, and the only things I bought when the idea occurred to me were the mushrooms (regular white button ones). Seeing the mushrooms, and knowing what was in my home...

Do you make/use compound/flavored butters? I make them fairly frequently, using fresh herbs during the warm months and dried herbs in the colder months. I usually don't get too complex with them, and favorites are basil and dill. I'll also sometimes flavor butter with dried spices, etc. I'll...

In the last few days, a couple of people here have mentioned, in passing, drying their own fresh herbs. I've never done that, nor did my parents do so when I was a child. I'm assuming this could be done using a food dehydrator, or in a low oven, or even air-dried, depending on your local...

I was thinking today that I don't think I've ever put herbs in a sandwich. But why? I put lettuce leaves, raw spinach leaves, micro greens etc in sandwiches, so why no herbs. I was particularly thinking of coriander leaves as I happen to have some to use up - it was then I realised I'd never put...

I have to say that I had my reservations about this cheese. I've made things in the past that used tofu and they were miserable failures. if you've ever just been served a slab of tofu, warmed slightly with no attempt made to do anything with it, not even drain it properly then you'll...
