If you’re anything like me, you have a large, impressive herbs & spices rack on your
kitchen counter, but only a few jars – namely, salt, pepper, and maybe basil – show
any kind of use. I often wondered, do people actually use these things or are they
just for show and to add to the kitchen ambiance? Not only are herbs what make
dishes taste delicious and complete the “finishing touch,” our bodies are happy
when we eat herbs because of their benefits. Here are some general guidelines for
using herbs and how they benefit your body.
Thyme
Rosemary
Sage
So there you have it. These are just examples of a few herbs that not only give
distinct new flavors to some of your favorite foods, but they have undeniable health
benefits! Next time you’re steaming vegetables, go on – find your inner dare devil
and add a dash of thyme and a pinch of sage. You just might find your new favorite
(not to mention, extra-healthy) way to prepare your veggies.
