Herbs
Herbs are a diverse group of plants used for their flavor, scent, and medicinal properties. Common in culinary and medicinal contexts, they are typically distinguished from vegetables and spices by their leafy green parts. Herbs like basil, mint, rosemary, thyme, parsley, and cilantro are staples in kitchens worldwide, used to enhance the flavor of dishes. Each herb has a unique flavor profile, ranging from sweet and floral to earthy and pungent. They can be used fresh or dried, with fresh herbs generally offering a more vibrant taste. Beyond culinary uses, many herbs also have health benefits due to their vitamins, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory properties. They play a crucial role in both traditional and modern medicine, and are also used in teas, aromatherapy, and cosmetics.
