Image: grow and drink herbs, Sunset, April 2011 |
My herb garden is currently limited to just sown oregano seeds. Oregano is not featured in the Sunset article but in Edible: An Illustrated Guide to the World's Food Plants by National Geographic (2008) notes that oregano can be steeped and "was considered useful as a mold digestive stimulant...." My garden is a north facing windowsill so I should stick with "easy" herbs like mint and lemongrass. Oregano is a harder herb to grown indoors but not as difficult as basil and sage, for example.
I have some dried California grown lavender. Can a dried herb be fashioned into a tisane?
