    Fresh Seasonings

    Recipe





    * Use fresh herbs and spices instead of using salt to season your
    meals

    * In recipes, cut salt in half and add more fresh herbs and spices

    * Experiment with different onion varieties to season soups, main
    meals soups and sauces, Do not forget other members of the onion
    family such as green onions, shallots, and leeks

    * When doubling a recipe, herbs and spices should only be increased by
    one and half times. Taste, and then add some more if necessary.

    * Add sage, bay leaf and garlic at the beginning of the cooking
    process as they have a strong flavor. Herbs with a more subtle aroma
    such as basil, parsley, fennel are best when added at the end of the
    cooking process to preserve their flavor

    * Here is a chart to convert dried herbs to fresh

    5 ml (1 tsp) dried herbs = 15ml (1 tbsp) fresh herbs
    0.5 ml(1/8 tsp) garlic powder = 1 medium clove of garlic
    5 ml (1 tsp) onion powder = 1 medium onion, finely chopped
    1ml (1/4 tsp) ground ginger = 5 ml (1tsp) grated fresh ginger
