Dill in cooking

Dill in cookingDill in cooking

Fresh and dried dill leaves (sometimes called "dill weed" to distinguish it from dill seed) are used as herbs. Like caraway, its fernlike leaves are aromatic, and are used to flavor many foods, such as gravlax, borscht and other soups, and pickles. Dill is said to be best when used fresh, as it loses its flavor rapidly if dried; however, freeze-dried dill leaves preserve their flavor relatively well for a few months. In the Middle Ages, dill was thought to protect against witchcraft. Dill seed is used as a spice, with a flavor similar to caraway.
