Tips:
- Choose fresh, flavorful herbs. The fresher the herbs, the more aromatic and delicious your salad will be. Look for herbs that are brightly colored and have a strong fragrance.
- Use a variety of herbs. Don't just stick to one or two herbs. Experiment with different combinations to create a salad that is complex and flavorful. Some good herb combinations include basil and mint, cilantro and lime, dill and fennel, and parsley and chives.
- Chop the herbs finely. This will help to release their flavor and make them easier to distribute throughout the salad.
- Add the herbs at the end of cooking. This will help to preserve their delicate flavor and prevent them from becoming bitter.
- Use herbs as a garnish. A sprinkling of fresh herbs can add a pop of color and flavor to any dish.
