Have you tried the purple basil to prepare Jenovese sous? I have not seen purple yet.

I like tabbouleh, and like chives also - I use it in pot roast often. What is cat nip? My dictionary does not recognise the word.
In the glass there is only that which I wrote already - water, lemon, ice and mint. It was 40 degrees Celsius here yesterday.

I hope I like it. I think that 40 Celsius must be hot!Catnip is an herb like mint. I guess people can use it for medicinal purposes but I dried some and gave it to my kitty cat.
The tabbouleh I made was with a grain called quinoa instead of Bulgar for a nuttier and more protein twist.
I will try your drink! I hope I like it. I think that 40 Celsius must be hot!

Found it. It is herb mainly. In France they use it in soup some times, but it is not good for pregnant and mother who feed their babes with own milk - so it is better to use it like herb. The drink from yesterday is a bit sour, so you may add some honey in it. It is better if previous evening cut 1 lemon in 1/2 litre water, add some mint and put all in the fridge till the morning. If need add a bit honey.

Can anyone help me in a different way? I love chamomile tea. I grow my own chamomile, but I drank the last of this year's crop last night. I also grow a wide assortment of herbs. (You name it, I probably grow it -- everything but parlsey.) I hate mint though. (Have some, but hate it. Oops. lol) So does anyone know of any other herbs that might make a good tea?
I'm not so learned on the virtue of the herbs or cooking, but just thought I'd chime in since I been growing some this year. Grew some Parsley, Basil, Chives in one pot. German Thyme and Oregano in another. Mint in a container of its own. I live in northeast Ohio and they have grown quite well and are very cheap and easy to grow. They only really need to be watered once a day. They all grew, but the chives I have notice did not grow as well as the others, perhaps due to the climate, or perhaps because they share a pot with two others. Other than that all grew well and yielded much and are still growing and yielding. The mint grew the best, perhaps because of the climate since mint grows wild around here.
Also not sure if it is scientific or not, but I decided to try a little experiment this year. I talk to the plants and compliment them and praise God and tell them to praise God when I water them and I believe God makes them grow better. I do the same thing with my tomato plant and it has yielded more than I could imagine and is even now still yielding even though its season is past. I've grown tomatoes before, but never talked to them and they did not even yield a quarter of what I got this year. So ultimate praise is to God for making them grow quite well.

Psa 147:7-8 „Sing unto the LORD with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God: Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.”
The herbs are known since ancient times and sometimes they are important ingredients of the holyday meal – „Exo 12:8 And they shall eat the flesh in that night, roast with fire, and unleavened bread; and with bitter herbs they shall eat it.”
This threat is about the culinary herbs. In my opinion they usually do the food more tasty and delicious. I would be glad if you share your experience on that matter.
I will give an example, but you just feel free to express your opinion on the way you want to
Since 2010 I have some of the culinary herbs grown on my balcony.

Basil goes with anything Italian, but it's best in pesto, torn up on quattro formagios, or in anything tomato.
Use bay for roasting lamb or flavouring soups.
Caraway is a great alternative to cumin, if you want your curry more Iraqi than Indian.
Chervil in your mayonnaise, with some mustard and pickles. Serve with strong fish, or pork.
Use dill the same way as chervil. Best with fish, not pork.
Fennel can be used with onion and garlic to make sauce bases for fish.
Lemon grass for everything thai.
Mint and lamb is a classic, but mint's also great in a tomato salad: cherry tomatoes cut in half, diced artichoke, sliced red onion, olives, crumbled feta, olive oil, mint, salt, pepper and lemon juice.
Parsley is a herb I'm not fond of, but English people put it in everything :/ Yuck. Best to use it in dishes from east of the mediterranean, particularly Lebanese and Syrian foods. That's where it comes from, and they know how to use it best. Add lemon or orange zest and use as a garnish for spicy foods.
Thyme & rosemary are classic roasting herbs used on all red meats.
