Seeds
Jekka's essential gardeners gift box contains the following 5 individual packets of culinary herb seeds depending on the herb kit you choose:
Spring Grow At Home Kit:
- Welsh Onion (Allium fistulosum): A perennial member of the Onion family, Welsh onion take up very little space and can be used as both a vegetable and a herb.
- Parsley (Petroselinum): is a hardy biennial that can be grown in a container. Jekka advocates using Parsley for flavour not just as a garnish. It is a good source of Vitamins A & C and also aids digestion.
- Sweet Marjoram (Origanum majorana): very aromatic, pale green, soft, oval leaves with an excellent flavour that combines well with meat, tomatoes and pasta.
- Borage(Borago officinalis) is an attractive annual with mid green, oval, bristly, slightly succulent leaves. The beautiful star shaped blue flowers are wonderful for your garden bees and pollinators.
- Red Amaranth (Amaranthus tricolor 'Red Army'): Striking long lasting small red flowers, followed by seeds which are edible when cooked. The young leaves can be used in salads or steamed when mature. Use seeds to make flat breads.
Summer Grow At Home Kit:
- Basil (Ocimum): A staple in both Mediterranean kitchens and Asian cuisines. Lovely added to a stir-fry, in salads and pestos.
- Dill (Anethum graveolens): Wonderful culinary herb combining well with vegetables, fish or meat. It is said to improve the appetite and digestion as well as being a natural calmative.
- Summer Savory (Satureja hortensis): known as the bean herb as the leaves are cooked with all forms of beans and pulses.
- Blue Hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis): Great for pollinators with its dense spikes of small dark blue/violet flowers and aromatic, green leaves. The leaves have a strong bitter minty flavour that can be used in marinades and with roast vegetables.
- Wild Rocket (Diplotaxis muralis): The strong, peppery flavour of fresh Wild Rocket is phenomenal compared to shop bought rocket and can be added to salads or sandwiches or makes the most delicious pesto.
Autumn Grow At Home Kit:
- Coriander (Coriandrum sativum): one of the most used herbs. Both the leaves and ripe seeds are edible and they have two distinct flavours; the seeds are warmly aromatic and the leaves have an earthy pungency.
- Jekka's Salad Herb Mix: one of Jekka's salad mixes to make a tasty "cut and come again" crop.
- Salad Burnet (Sanguisorba minor) which is one of the few soft leaved, hardy evergreen perennials making it a wonderful addition to any herb bed. The leaves have a nutty flavour and a slight taste of cucumber. Add to Gin & Tonic as a garnish.
- Lovage (Levisticum officinale): has a flavour reminiscent of celery and adds a meaty flavour to food. Older leaves can be used in stews, soups and stocks whilst the younger ones can be used in salads.
- Winter Purslane (Claytonia perfoliata): also known as miner's lettuce, the whole plant is edible it tastes quite like spinach and is full of vitamin C.
