Harvest seeds several weeks after plant flowers.
Cooking - Sprinkle freshly chopped leaves on cucumbers and tomatoes or mix with sour cream. Excellent on salmon. Add seeds to rice and fish dishes. Freeze whole or in air tight container, or chop for herb butter. Plant in pot then sink in ground to control.
