Multi-talented Herb
Good Organic Gardening|November - December 2018

FROM MAKING YOUR HANDS SMELL NICE TO SOOTHING A SORE THROAT OR PEPPING UP A SALAD, LOVAGE IS A VERY VERSATILE PLANT

Jennifer Stackhouse
Multi-talented Herb
Lovage looks like a cross between parsley and celery with its tall, hollow stems topped with large, flat parsley-like leaves. It can reach 2m high and every part is edible.

This herb is native to Europe and western Asia and has long been cultivated for its edible and medicinal properties. Its flavour is strong, especially when used fresh, and the taste recalls a pungent celery.

Pick leaves and tender stems to chop as a fresh herb or garnish, or to add to cooked dishes for a celery flavour. The stems can also be candied. The fleshy, carrot-like roots can be used like a root vegetable and even the seeds can be ground and added to both sweet and savoury dishes.
