Fresh Herbs Combi

I love to add fresh herbs into my cooking! They help to compliment and enrich the food taste without adding any calories and fats and they are rich in anti-oxidants too. We will in turn reduce our intake of unhealthy options like salt, MSG and sugar.

There are some many varieties of fresh herbs available in the supermarket. So which one should I buy? Hmmm... Which herb goes well with chicken?


I've experimented with these herbs and have worked out pretty well. Hope you will find this guide useful and do let me know if you have more to add to the list.

Basil ~ with chicken, fish, pasta or tomatoes
Dill ~ with chicken or fish
Italian Parlsey ~ with meat, fish, pasta or vegetables
Mint ~ with fruits or salads
Oregano ~ with pasta or vegetables
Rosemary ~ with chicken, veal or potatoes
Sage ~ with poultry, meat or pasta,
Tarragon ~ with chicken, fish or salads
Thyme ~ with poultry, meat, fish, vegetables or salads

Have fun experimenting!
