Herbs by Roger Tabor
Herbs contains a wealth of practical advice for growing, harvesting and preserving these invaluable plants. It shows how to use herbs as cooking ingredients, healing remedies, beauty treatments, natural cleansers and more. A fully illustrated directory provides comprehensive descriptions of more than 100 garden herbs and their uses. In the chapters that follow are instructions for making herbal preparations, such as infusions, syrups and ointments, as well as recipes for dishes bursting with health and flavour. There are even projects and how-to tips for decorative and cosmetic uses, including flower arrangements and potpourris, skin creams and shampoos. Bringing together a wide range of ways to use and enjoy herbs, along with the latest scientific research, Herbs is an invaluable compendium of ancient and modern herbal knowledge.
