Herbs on Saturday February Round-Up and the Winner announced!
Welcome to another month of herbal glory, as ever, you have all risen to the herbal challenge and I am amazed at the range of herbs that have been used in the delectable recipes shown below! There is a winner, for the wonderful book “Self-sufficiency Foraging” by David Squire, and I will announce the winner at the end of the round-up! I am stealing a fabulous idea from last month’s guest host, Vanesther from Bangers and Mash, and will be highlighting each post in FIVE words!

Does anybody know what chipotle is? I’m English, I live in France and I’ve never heard of it!!!!
Ruthdigs says
It’s a kind of chilli isn’t it? Aha – apparently it’s a smoke dried jalapeno: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chipotle

We don’t get bizarre foods in France!!
