๐ฅ Kitchen Skills
Getting the Most Flavour from Dried Herbs
Did you know you can boost the flavour of dried herbs before adding them to a recipe? Simply rub a small amount of the seasoning blend between your fingertips just before using it. This helps release the natural oils trapped in the dried herbs, making the lemon and dill flavours more vibrant.
For the best results, add Lemon Dill Seasoning Blend near the end of cooking when preparing delicate foods like fish or steamed vegetables. Prolonged high heat can dull the bright citrus notes, while adding the seasoning during the final few minutes allows its fresh flavours to shine.
๐ฅก Storage
Store your Homemade Lemon Dill Seasoning Blend in an airtight glass jar or spice container in a cool, dry pantry away from direct sunlight.
For the freshest flavour, use within 6โ12 months. To keep the herbs evenly distributed, give the jar a gentle shake before each use.
