00:00:07of all genius cooking they’re absolutely
00:00:10the cornerstone of all historic medicine
00:00:13if you have herbs in your cooking you
00:00:17have more flavors and sensations and
00:00:19dynamism in your cooking it doesn’t
00:00:22matter if you live on the 40th floor of
00:00:25a block of flats it doesn’t matter if
00:00:26you’ve got no garden at all you’ve got a
00:00:28veranda maybe you haven’t even got up
00:00:29around and maybe just got a windowsill
00:00:31fresh herbs at the very least down the
00:00:36market are the minimum so in this part
00:00:38of Europe with soft herbs basil tarragon
00:00:41chervil coriander parsley all of these
00:00:45little soft herbs are quite fragile so
00:00:47you kind of have to restart them every
00:00:49year but woody herbs times oregano bay
00:00:55leaves sage rosemary these are Hardy
00:00:59they’ll grow pretty much all year round
00:01:01they’ll die back a little bit in the
00:01:03winter you buy a pot for one pound fifty
00:01:05two pound three pound depending on the
00:01:07size and you’ve pretty much got it for
00:01:10life because you can take cuttings and
00:01:11replant it so what I’m saying to you is
00:01:13go buy some herbs especially the woody
00:01:16ones which a great value well behaved
00:01:18they kind of do what they got to do but
00:01:21if you can get me in a bigger pot or at
00:01:22least change the soil regularly they’re
00:01:24gonna do well these herbs can really
00:01:27rock rock your cookin go for it get into
00:01:31it and and again just because I’m
00:01:34sitting in a bunch of herbs and flowers
00:01:35does not mean I’ve gone mad this is
00:01:38serious this is what cooking is all
00:01:40about make it easy for yourself
