Did you
know?
Culinary herbs are distinguished from
vegetables in
that they are used in small amounts and provide
flavor (similar
to spices) rather than substance to
food. In this
sense, some herbs contain phytochemicals that when consumed in small
quantities can be healthy, yet in large quantities can be toxic to the
liver.
Herbs have a
variety of uses including culinary, medicinal, or in some cases even
spiritual usage. The green, leafy part of the plant is often used, but
herbal medicine makes use of the roots, flowers, seeds, root bark, inner
bark (cambium), berries and sometimes the pericarp or other portions.
General usage differs between culinary herbs and medicinal herbs. A
medicinal herb may be a shrub or other woody plant, whereas a culinary
herb is a non-woody plant, typically using the leaves. By contrast,
spices are the
seeds,
berries,
bark,
root,
fruit, or other
parts of the plant, even leaves in some cases; although any of these, as
well as any edible fruits or vegetables, may be "herbs" in medicinal or
spiritual use.
