Taste and use of dill microgreens
The leaves of dill should always be used when they are as fresh as possible as this helps them to maintain the aroma which makes them so popular.
They are especially popular in the cuisine of northern Europe where dill is often added to sauces and marinades. It is often used to add flavour to fish or seafood dishes. In some countries dill sprinkled on boiled eggs is a favoured food.
Dill has a similar flavour to fennel, so it can be strong. If used wisely it can enhance the flavour of food without overpowering it. It helps in the creation of home-made meals that are appetizing in aroma and healthy to eat. This is what makes dill such a popular herb in the kitchen.
