Who are they ? How to identify them ? What to cook with them ?
All the answers in this video. Culinary herbs ( aka Aromatic herbs ) are a perfect way to add flavors, tastes and freshness in a dish. I just love them.
Sage, Thyme, Rosemary, Parsley, Coriander, Cilantro, Bay leaf, Chive, Mint, Tarragon, Oregano... Gotta love these cooking herbs.

Thanks for this. We see so many chefs use herbs, but rarely do we see something that tells us why this herb and not that one. I would like to see you expand on this with a video on dried herbs and spices. Of course fresh is often best, but lets face it, we all use dried at least at times.

I am surprised by how often I use lavender of all things. A housemate bought some for tea, and I smelled it and knew it belonged in the stew I was working on. It's also fantastic in small amounts in white sauce and most cheese sauces. But these 12 are so very strong as the basics, and it was fun to see your thoughts on their effects! Thanks for the lovely videos.

What many people don't know about is a type of basil known as African Blue Basil. It looks closer to Thai basil than common basil, but it smells BRILLIANT. It has the rich flavour of normal basil, but it also has a hint of mint to it that adds to the richness of the dish. If you grow the plant, you can eat it after it flowers (unlike common basil). In fact, you can eat its flowers too! It tastes similar, but milder.

My favourite herb missed here is marjoram, oregano's gentler sister. In fact, I often substitute marjoram for oregano, enjoying its subtler flavour. Its delicate taste wonderfully enhances egg dishes. PS__I LOVE your show Alex. My fav episode is the French cheese board. I like how you left your kitchen to source the cheeses. It made for a really dynamic show. Also, next time I'm in Paris, I plan on trying some of your restaurant/café recommendations. I'm in search of the perfect almond croissant!

Most of these are quite easy to grow and some should be grouped in the same pot as companion plants. In my northeastern NY climate, I bring the Bay leaf and Rosemary inside for winter. Dry and freeze cuttings of the rest, since you never know the age and quality of the market stuff. I seek out recipes that use the herbs I grow. Persillade for parsley. Pesto is basil. Sage and brown butter sauce. Lots more.

There are "Bohnenkraut"(savory, wouldn't cook green beens without it) and "Liebstöckel"( lovage) , also called "Maggikraut" in German, great in beef stock, any veg soup, potatoes and salads. And what about "Kerbel" ( chervil)? I use it at Easter time for soup especially, but also for the famous Green Sauce. Very informative and charming videos you make, thank you, dear Alex!

Love your videos, Alex! I use a lot of herbs, mostly from my own garden, and I either grow or have grown all these you list here. I also like using fruit with pork or chicken, less frequently with fish or beef. I have used apricots, but I used sweeter spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, mace, cardamom, cloves, etc. But your info at 5:27 inspired my very delicious lunch: Rosemary Apricot Pork Chops. I browned the chops in bacon drippings; topped them with slices of apricot; added crushed garlic cloves, rosemary, and thyme; poured coconut milk around and between the chops; and braised them in the oven. Back on the stovetop, I removed the chops and reduced the sauce by half. Turned out great. Thanks for the inspiration!

i love oregano, specifically dried mexican oregano. it just seems more flavorful so a little goes a long way and i use it in almost every dish. if i don't have it, which doesn't happen often, i substitute dried italian herbs. i love to use it fresh too on lamb roasts with garlic, pepper, salt and olive oil crushed up in a paste. i don't have lamb roast often as lamb is expensive in the U.S., so i usually get fresh oregano instead of using my staple dried oregano as lamb tends to be a holiday splurge dish.

Super useful video! Actually in a lot of Asian cuisines we have a slightly different species of chives that we use that is literally translated to "garlic chives" and go figure the garlic flavor is much more pronounced. The leaves are much thinner and very long, and their stems are quite tough. It's used in foods like dumplings or famous in Korean cuisine (such as pajeon--i probably spelled that wrong, which is essentially a flour based pancake with the garlic chives). If you can get a hold of it its really best used when cooked with meats or lots of other savory dishes (not as versatile as folding the usual chive in eggs), but can also be used in a variety of marinades or Asian dipping sauces :)

Salut, alex! i love this, so useful. Coriander is my favorite, maybe because I'm mexican... :P everytime i have to cook beans (dry beans) i put them in the slow cooker with half an onion and a big bunch of fresh coriander for a few hours. They turn out wonderful, I'm sure that would work with lentils too. coucou du mexique!

anidubidumdum Love coriander and beans. SO perfect ! But usually, I won't add the leaves in with the beans. I would add the strokes, finely chopped. And a handful of leaves just before serving.

Coriander may be in the original cocacola drink recipe. It was in a newspaper article about 1930s. This was on NPR National Public Radio.

Lovely vid! In my opinion tarragon is killer when combined with lemon/garlic/white wine and beef and mint goes great with feta/onion/raisins (I use them all in a couscous salad I make). Both killer combinations, you should give them a try :)

Nice video. I think people should use more herbs like that instead of only seasoning their food with too much salt and pepper. Unfortunately most of the people living in industrial countries don't know anything about them. Since I'm greek I grew up using basel, oregano and bay leaves in nearly every dish but for most of the people living here in Germany it's something really uncommon...

The problem is that the supermarkets overhere (in Holland, maybe the same for Germany) only sell fresh herbs in small quantities for a very high price. I think that is why many people use the dried herbs instead, which sometimes do not taste like the fresh product at all. Dried parsley smells like those dried flakes of fish food you can buy in pet stores to feed the fish in your aquarium. (never dared to try it in my dishes, or tasted fishfood, so couldn't tell you if it also tastes like fish food). Turkish supermarkets usually sell fresh coriander and parsley for a decent price though, I usually go there to buy my herbs.

Thanks for these amazing cooking videos. Can you show us what kind of dry herbs you used in many of your videos (like your French bourguignon, beef stew etc.), and how to get/make them?
