IACP Cookbook Award Finalist Nobody knows herbs and spices like Tony Hill, owner of Seattle's famed World Merchants Spice, Herb & Teahouse. Now, in this acclaimed book, Hill gives us a comprehensive guide to these essential flavorings based on his travels around the globe. Blending culinary history, the lore of the spice routes, and his own inimitable tasting notes, he profiles more than 125 herbs and spices, ranging from the familiar to the exotic. He gives practical information and advice, including how best to use nine popular chiles, what distinguishes true cinnamon from cassia cinnamon, and why it makes a difference where your bay leaf comes from—plus more than 75 delicious recipes for distinctively spiced dishes. To top it all off, Hill reveals the secret recipes for 85 of his signature herb and spice blends, including barbecue rubs, mulling spices, chili powders, chai mixes, and curry powders. Complete with 185 color photographs, The Spice Lover's Guide to Herbs & Spices is an indispensable culinary reference that is both a pleasure to cook with and enjoyable to read. "Hill . . . is way ahead of cookbook authors who cling to parsley in a cilantro world. . . . This is the book for anyone who has been lucky enough to find grains of paradise or Aleppo pepper and wonders where to go from there." —Regina Schrambling, Los Angeles Times "Even those who never cook may find themselves often dipping into this intriguing read." —CeCe Sullivan, The Seattle Times

Today's home chef demands tools that deliver consistent, superior performance with every use. Cuisipro tools have been created to perform specific tasks with precision and ease while always providing the finest results. The Herb Keeper is a smart storage tool to keep herbs fresh longer. The clear plastic container is 9-1/2-inch tall and holds large grocery store or farm market sized bunches of herbs. Use the knob on the lid to lift the tray, add about an inch of water to the bottom, and insert herb bunches into tray slots. The tray design allows the herb stems to hydrate while the leaves stay above water. Herbs like Rosemary, Thyme, Oregano and even Dill flourish in the herb keeper. Stalk vegetables like asparagus and celery also stay fresh and crisp in the Herb Keeper.

Description

Donna Frawley is a home economics major whose interest in herbs started in the culinary area and grew to include all aspects of herbs. In 1980, she started sharing her herbal knowledge with community groups and clubs and since has given over 250 lectures. In 1983, she started her own herb business, Frawley's Fine Herbary. Donna began by selling at her local farmer's market and that fall opened a home-based business which she continues today. Her recipe and cookbook collection, as well as her years as a baker and a home economics teacher led her to write The Herbal Breads Cookbook and the booklet on Edible Flowers. After teaching years of herbal cooking, a friend suggested she make a video teaching some of the simple techniques she used in her classes. Cooking With Herbs was then made.
