Soft fresh herbs
Soft fresh herbs bring freshness, fragrance and nuance to dishes. Herbs such as parsley, chives, dill, basil, mint and coriander are often added only at the end, so their fresh aroma and lively flavour are preserved.
On this page, you will discover a range of soft fresh herbs, with attention to flavour, use in the kitchen, storage and culinary applications. This gives you a clear overview of which herbs work well with salads, fish, vegetables, egg dishes, light sauces and dishes from different cuisines.
