Herb Snips
2008-04-30 19:18:00 Essentially a pair of scissors with multiple parallel blades, herb snips effortlessly expedite the tiresome act of mincing. With their help, scallions or other fresh herbs can instantly transform into a manageable, chopped pile. This take on herb snips features five three-inch stainless steel blades stacked on each silicone-coated arm. And although they'll likely remain in the arsenal of only the most pampered chefs, they also double as great low-tech household shredders. (Also on Cool Hunting: Shredding Scissors.) You can buy the herb snips for $13 at Chef's Catalog.

My Herb Garden
2008-04-25 11:01:00 Unfortunatly I have a very small kitchen with one tiny window in the roof, so the only place for my herbs is the window ledge in the living room. It seems that they like it a lot, except of my problemchild the thyme.Rosemary is there since last december, growing and growing, just like the pot of lemon balm. It might be important to mention that the heating is right under the window ledge, so this is probably the reason why thyme always almost dried out after 2 weeks. Actually it is not a big problem because it is nice to use my own dried thyme, but I would love to have it fresh and green! In summer I also have bay leaf. The pot of sage is almost a month old and still in great condition! I do not know what I do wrong, because even basil survives long, the one I have now it is already 2 weeks old and I have heared that it is difficult to keep them. I would not say that I regulary water them, I check them maybe once in 3 days and if the soil is dry I give them water, but that way I ove...

Protecting Your Herb Garden for the Winter
2008-04-09 18:26:00 Preparing your herb garden for the coming winter can actually be done in late summer or early fall. In order to prepare your garden for winter, do not fertilize when you are within about one month of a first hard frost. Most of your annual herbs will begin to die back during late summer and early fall months.To properly prepare your garden for winter, you may mulch and use cover crops to prevent soil from eroding from rain or snowmelt. In many cases, gardeners may also grow small patches of annual herbs between the perennial herbs in the garden. Perennials should be mulched during the winter. In most climates, except for the warmest ones found in the Southwest, such motions can provide insulation to the soil that will keep it warm during those winter months.However, wait until plants are dormant and about one inch of ground soil is frozen before you apply such mulch. If you are not sure, wait until temperatures at night have dropped into the 20s for at least three days and daytime t...

Mediterranean Meatballs with Couscous, Chickpeas & Herb Salad
2008-04-03 03:56:00 Sometimes a food blogger feels compelled to post a recipe, even if she does not quite know what else to say, besides ?ta-da!?I planned the last week of meals carefully; not so tonight. By the time the light had gone, the evening was underway and my supper ideas were scarce. I headed to the deep freezer, peered in, and found an excess of frozen ground beef. What to do with that? Something quick, no doubt, but in the best possible taste for a fifteen minute (could I cut it to ten?) preparation. I pulled a pack from the frozen depths and headed to the microwave for a quick defrost.Meatballs suddenly seemed just the thing: undemanding, but a step up from burgers or meatloaf. Once I had gathered what I needed from the pantry and produce drawer?raisins, couscous, a half a container of leftover fresh mint, and a few more bits & pieces?and Nick was playing in another room with Kevin, the kitchen felt transformed to a haven of plain dealing, the tile floor, smooth counters, and utensils ...

Hats Off to Herb
2008-03-28 21:33:00 Having been born in the early 70s, I've never known a world without an Egg McMuffin. That eggy, cheesy, salty goodness sandwiched between two halves of an English muffin is one of my favorite McDonald's food items and can be easily replicated at home. Earlier this week, the inventor of the Egg McMuffin - Herb Peterson - passed away at age 89. That's no small feat considering he worked for a food chain who is known for clogging arteries. Peterson's recipe was inspired by Eggs Benedict and one news source claims a local blacksmith let him borrow one of his circular molds to cook the eggs in a round shape. Peterson began his career with McDonald's as vice-president of the company's advertising firm where he wrote the chain's first national slogan, "Where Quality Starts Fresh Every Day." He eventually became a franchisee and owned and operated six McDonald's restaurants in the Santa Barbara area at the time of his death. He routinely visited his stores to chat with customers up ...

Creating your own Herb Garden
2008-03-04 13:56:00 The first thing you will want to do is plan your herb garden. An easy way to do this is to make a numbered list on paper of the herb plants that you want to include. Then, beside or below the list make a quick sketch of the area that you will be planting. Now it is a simple matter of arranging the plants within the sketch. Draw a circle and place the number from your list inside to indicate which plant goes where. Important considerations when choosing the herbs you want to plant is the size and growth habits of the various herbs you’ve chosen. For instance, mints are taller and tend to be intrusive making it wise to contain them in a separate garden area or plant them within a container dug into the garden. Thyme makes a terrific border plant since it is a lower growing plant with a tendency to spread. Generally, taller plants should be placed toward the back of the garden and shorter ones in front. Herbs can be annuals, perennials or biennials. It may benefit you to separa...
