Darina Allen: The Incredible versatility of garden herbs

Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme. It’s so good to have something to distract us from the Covid-19 pandemic, so this week, prompted by National Herb Week, now in its sixth year, which celebrates herbs and herbal medicine, I’m going to focus on the culinary attributes of fresh herbs.
Fresh herbs add magic to our dishes and have always been a big part of my cooking. Each and every one has a unique aroma and they have been part of the flavour of our food for as long as I can remember.
