Getting Fresh, With Herbs That is. The Afterword

Summer-savoryI stopped in to check with the "herb lady" at my favorite outdoor market over the weekend. She is responsible for many of the herbs in our terrace garden this summer, and I love the enthusiasm she has for her work.

I thought I had been exposed to all of her herby delights, but no, there was yet another plant for me to discover. Bohnenkraut or savory, is new to me. You too? So I couldn't resist "Getting Fresh" one more time and talking herbs.

Bohnenkraut, (its direct translation is actually "bean herb"), is particularly popular right now in Germany because green beans are everywhere, and no one cooks them without their Bohnenkraut.

Apparently, the bright, fresh, peppery flavor of summer savory adds a whole new dimension to typically bland green beans. And winter savory works wonders with dried beans, I've heard, specifically in helping to reduce the "musical accompaniment" that is often part of the experience.

Have you been savoring savory this summer, or like me, are you discovering it for the first time?
