Culinary Lavender for sale!

Dean from Masterton District

Herbal Visionz NZ Culinary Lavender. 50gm.

Lavender is a member of the Lamiaceae family, which includes many indispensible culinary herbs, such as the mints, rosemary, thyme, basil, oregano and marjoram. Next time you’re out in your herb garden, take a close look at these herbs.

You’ll notice that their stems, rather than being round, are actually square, which is one of the distinctive characteristics of this illustrious family. Another characteristic, of course, is that all these herbs produce highly fragrant essential oils. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that lavender can be used in cooking.

Lavender can be substituted for any of these other herbs in cooking (except basil – I wouldn’t care to try a lavender pesto, but who knows?). It is, perhaps, most similar to rosemary or thyme, but imparts a delicate, floral flavour to dishes.

Would make a great gift for an international visitor!

Use in biscuit and cake recipes, ice cream, confectioneries, chocolates as well as spice rubs, rice and curries.

I also have culinary lavender oil for sale.

Price: $15
