From shopping to cooking
Choose
Choose fragrant, brightly coloured leaves without blackening, wilting, slime or excessive moisture in the pack.
Store
Wrap loosely in slightly damp kitchen paper or keep the stems in a little water in the fridge. Wash and dry just before use.
Prepare

How to make the most of it
Good pairings
Works particularly well with olive oil, lemon, garlic, tomato, vegetables, fish, poultry and mild cheeses.
How to substitute it
Choose another fresh herb with a compatible aroma and add it gradually, as intensity varies greatly between herbs.
