Nothing tastes quite like a long simmered pot of cannellini beans infused with rosemary.
Or a steaming bowl of split pea soup with a sprinkle of mint on top. Or a juicy slab of roast chicken breast that's been cooked with sprigs of thyme and sage tucked under its skin. Herbs can take your cooking to a whole new level, especially when you know a thing or two about buying and storing these aromatic, leafy treasures. Getting Fresh Flavor-wise, fresh herbs are always better than dried. Dried herbs quickly lose their essential oils, and the longer you store them, the more their flavor dissipates.
