I have a herb growing in the garden that’s
either oregano or marjoram and it’s going gang busters. Last winter when it all
died down, I really missed having herbs out of the garden for cooking. So, this
season I decided to do something about it & harvest it for drying &
keeping. I thought I’d make my own blend of “mixed herbs” by adding thyme and some other herbs as well as maybe some chives and walking onions.
I attacked the unlabelled bush with the secateurs but
didn’t realise just how much was there until it completely filled the sink when
I tried to wash it.
I spent the rest of the morning sorting
through it; bundling it and hanging it on the clothes line to dry the water off
before pegging it on the clothes rack. When that was done, I turned to Professor Google to try to figure out which herb it might actually be but it seems I need to wait until it flowers.
So, any ideas for what I can do with this
much oregano/marjoram?
Give the herbs to your friends (or sell them at the local market...)
ReplyDeleteBut I'd just cook with them. ;)
