About Spices, dill weed, dried
Dill (Anethum graveolens) is a feathery, aromatic herb with a fresh, grassy flavor and gentle notes of anise and lemon, used both as a leafy herb and as a pungent seed spice. Its delicate wispy fronds, sometimes called dill weed, brighten dishes, while the flat, oval seeds add warmth to pickling, breads, and spice blends. A staple of Northern, Eastern European, and Scandinavian cooking, dill is the signature flavor in dill pickles, cured gravlax, and creamy sauces, and it pairs beautifully with salmon, potatoes, eggs, yogurt sauces like tzatziki, beet soups, and cool cucumber.
It supplies vitamin C, manganese, folate, and antioxidants for almost no calories. Fresh dill is best added near the end of cooking, since its delicate flavor fades quickly with heat. Easy to grow and quick to bolt in the garden, it is best used fresh. Keep the fresh herb wrapped in a damp paper towel in the refrigerator or stems in a glass of water, freeze it for longer storage, and store dried dill and dill seed in a cool, dark cupboard to protect their aroma.
