Dried herbs

I love using fresh herbs and spices in recipes. They’re such a simple way to add a ton of flavour and always stop me from overusing salt in food. I have a little pot in the back garden and find certain herbs such as rosemary grow very well all year round. It’s not always possible to use fresh herbs and spices as their availability is often dependent on the season, so I have a shelf stocked full of dried alternatives.
