The herb-loving author will lead you into the delicious world of these flavor-rich plants and the pleasures they offer. When author Susan Goetz of Tacoma, Washington, experienced health issues she eliminated from her diet many foods that triggered sensitivities. To keep things interesting, she turned to herbs and started making her own mixes from seasoning blends to cocktail infusions. Now Goetz offers the results of that personal journey in a new book A Taste for Herbs: A guide to seasonings, mixes and blends from the herb lover's garden (St. Lynn's Press, 2019). The 190-page book is a culinary-herbal master class wrapped around 100 recipes. It's suitable for the novice and experienced herb lover alike. Feb. 25, 2019 Goetz has a hard time choosing a favorite recipe. Right now citrus herb pepper is one of my go-tos, she says. I use it on everything that I would use salt on and I use it two or three times a week in scrambled eggs in a mug (page 102) for my morning protein hit. The salsa mix is one I use a lot too. I like avocados mushed up as a side and I use the salsa mix to season them. I could easily say my favorite recipes come with the season. When I have basil in the garden, then pesto would my frequent recipe. As soon as the chives start popping up, I like to make them into an herb-oil paste to saute with. -- Paris Wolfe You acquired a variety of herbs. They grew. Now what?
