Customer Reviews

I love this book!

Someone gave me this book for my 50th birthday many years ago, and I have been using it ever since. All my friends get my herbal liqueurs or jams or oils or vinegars for holiday gifts, and I keep plenty for myself. I love this book!

A MUST for every herb gardener!

I've had this book for three years now, and it's by far the best herbal cookbook I've ever read. It has recipes for herbal butters, liquors, teas, jams and jellies, and much more. A keeper!!

Great Ideas for using herbs!

I first got this book from the library and had to get one of my own. It is filled with numerous easy recipes to use the abundance of herbs that fill my summer garden! I really liked too that there are ideas of how to use all of the vinegars, oils, etc- nothing is worse than getting or giving a bottle of something that you have no idea how to use!

Herbal Masterpiece

Another of Tolley and Mead's Herbal Masterpieces! I loved it. As always, their pictures are beautiful and inspiring, and the text is clear and well written. Wonderful herbal recipes for jellies, vinegars, oils, preserves, and much more. If you enjoy herbs, this book is a must!

this book is visually wonderful & the recipes are WONDERFUL!

This book contains some of the most creative and special ideas for honeys, jellies, herbs, butters, pastries, olives... the list goes on and on.It uses incredible ingredients such as lemon scented geranium and rose petals and the photographs make you feel like you want to make every last thing in the book.I borrowed the book from my mother for so long that i finally HAD to get my own copy!!!
