Herbs with charachter : Delicious recipes with Horseradish, Lovage and Angelica

“Horseradish, lovage and angelica root — the ‘aroma roots’ featured in this booklet — are powerful flavour enhancers from our own soil, with a rich history in European cuisine. Yet over time, we have somewhat forgotten how to use these plants as ingredients.”

“In this booklet, we show how the strong assets of aromatic plants can be brought into play in our daily food. Through a creative approach, we succeed not only in fully harnessing their health benefits, but also in stimulating our taste buds with the delicious aromas and attractive colours of these ingredients.”

“Our growers can be proud of these outstanding local products and deserve the support of the culinary world to help spread their story. This booklet is therefore a first initiative that we launch into the world with full conviction.”
