Herbs vs. Spices


We often use the words herb and spice interchangeably. Herbs and spices are obtained from plants. (Salt is neither a spice nor an herb. It is actually a mineral.) Herbs and spices are used primarily for adding flavor and aroma to food. And both are best used fresh but can be saved by drying. While there are similarities, there also are subtle differences between herbs and spices.

Herbs are obtained from the leaves of herbaceous (non-woody) plants. They are used for savory purposes in cooking and some have medicinal value. Herbs often are used in larger amounts than spices. Herbs originated from temperate climates such as Italy, France, and England. Herb also is a word used to define any herbaceous plant that dies down at the end of the growing season and may not refer to its culinary value at all.

Spices are obtained from roots, flowers, fruits, seeds or bark. Spices are native to warm tropical climates and can be woody or herbaceous plants. Spices often are more potent and stronger flavored than herbs; as a result they typically are used in smaller amounts. Some spices are used not only to add taste, but also as a preservative.

Some plants are both herbs and spices. The leaves of Coriandrum sativum are the source of cilantro (herb) while coriander (spice) is from the plant's seeds. Dill is another example. The seeds are a spice while dill weed is an herb derived from the plant's stems and leaves.

I have the an7. German plural for the german An6.
12:35 am
SummerRose

Can you clue the an6? Pls?
12:35 am
sprite

Looked up the def to see what it means in English.
1. Biology. The initial clustering of embryonic cells from which a part or an organ develops; primordium.
2. A genetic predisposition to a given trait or personality characteristic.
3. A fundamental principle; the foundation for a future development.
12:36 am

Or: an + site slowness + vowel = 6. Add consonant for the 7.

I am pretty sure that 'pagh' is Klingon for some kind of (still moving) food.
12:40 am

lol sprite - sounds about right :)
12:40 am
melonheadjujube

ga6/27 is plural of ga5 - a quick dance - horsy sort
12:41 am
sprite

there are 2x ga6/27. Last 2 letters differ.
12:42 am
melonheadjujube

OK - got the an7 - the German hint helped - in english, an prefix doesn't usually precede p or l, converts to am for the p - enough linguistics....
12:42 am
helenkeller

huh melon?
12:42 am
sprite

true, melon.
12:43 am
melonheadjujube

oh never minds me - i was just trying to say i could not think of any english words that begin ANP or ANL.
12:43 am

it made sense, sprite - i'm a bit punchy - last wet day in ceramics studio is tomorrow - i'm finishing up my second ever teapot
12:43 am

melon - please stop hurting my head! :)
12:44 am

12:44 am
melonheadjujube

ooooh, poor hk, {pat on head, verrry gently}
12:45 am

yes, it did, melon! In Dutch you cannot have ANP either, the N becomes M before P. Not sure about the L, but pretty sure we don't have ANL words either.

I like that all year round system. I know a lot of kids who would benefit from it. I think some European schools are run that way.
9:35 pm
LuwandaHL

I first heard of in in Aurora CO. My school system has offered it for 10 years
9:36 pm
LuwandaHL

we also offer traditional schedule. we are a large suburb system so we can offer both in elementary and middle school
9:36 pm
lbdawger

what you might say to a pesky critter to move then add the hockey stick letter
9:37 pm
LuwandaHL

I chose this schedule because I think it is extremely good for education - both students and teachers
9:37 pm
lbdawger

i think a lot of kids would benefit from shorter sessions of learning all year round, verses trying to cram info into their heads in 180 straight days
9:38 pm
LuwandaHL

we also offer 2 week remediation during fall and spring break for half of the day
9:38 pm
LoriP

I agree, in a general way. This is a much debated topic within my immediate family circle.

no Lori, different colleges use different measures for admissions. Some use ACT instead, and all take grades and outside activities into account as well
9:42 pm

hello professor! ready for the kid yet? just informed him he is ON HIS OWN when it comes to all school work. We'll see if he does better or worse...
9:42 pm

The SAT people didn't like the falling scores, so they started curving the grades. The result: colleges use the SAT less.

Good morning, all. What is the difference between Scotch, Irish, Rye and Bourbon Whiskies?
Scotch Whisky is whisky which has been distilled and matured in Scotland. Irish Whiskey means whiskey distilled and matured in Ireland. Whisky is distilled in Scotland from malted barley in Pot Stills and from malted and unmalted barley or other cereals in Patent Stills. The well-known brands of Scotch Whisky are blends of a number of Pot Still and Patent Still whiskies. Irish Whiskey distillers tend to favour three distillations rather than two, as is general in Scotland in the case of Pot Still whiskies, and the range of cereals used is wider.

As regards Bourbon Whiskey, the United States Regulations provide:

(i) that Bourbon Whiskey must be produced from a mash of not less than 51% corn grain;

(ii) that the word ‘Bourbon’ shall not be used to describe any whiskey or whiskey-based distilled spirits not produced in the United States.

Rye Whiskey is produced both in the United States and Canada but the name has no geographical significance. In the United States, Rye Whiskey by definition must be produced from a grain mash of which not less than 51% is rye grain. In Canada, there is no similar restriction. The relevant Canadian Regulation states:

‘Canadian Whisky (Canadian Rye Whisky, Rye Whisky) shall be whisky distilled in Canada, and shall possess the aroma, taste and character generally attributed to Canadian Whisky.’

Canadian Whisky is in fact often referred to simply as Rye Whisky or Rye.

What are spirits?
The term spirits describes the product of distillation, whatever the raw materials, or whether it be in a pure state or contaminated by impurities normally present in any distillate. Generally, the word refers to any volatile inflammable liquid obtained by distillation.

Spirits for human consumption, or potable spirits, are the distillates of alcoholic liquids, the alcohol in which has been formed by the fermentation of sugar as contained in grapejuice, sugar cane, etc., or in saccharified materials such as specially prepared cereals, e.g. malted barley.

10:20 pm
Jacula

Incidentally, speaking of eggs, I read today that there's now and EU (European Union aka Interference In UK Affairs from Brussels) that all eggs, free-range or otherwise, have to be stamped with the date & time laid & the identity of the hen who laid it. If that's not ridiculous, I don't know what is!

Jacula

Hi Hell!
10:27 pm
jillibus

soft-boiled (4-minute if they're big like Vanessa's) eggs and "soldiers" or "dipper-inners" -- lovely. Those soldiers are pieces of hot buttered toast cut into strips so that youcan dip them into the decapitated eggs in an egg-cup.
10:28 pm
stidmama

10:49 pm
stidmama

well it's certainly something to consider... I don't really want long-term employment out side the home, just a way to get a little ahead.
10:50 pm
renfield

i don;t want employment inside the home
10:50 pm
Jacula

Oh heck! I must be getting tired again... I read stid's post as 'don't really want long-term enjoyment outside the home'.:(
10:50 pm

10:52 pm
renfield

it was me
10:52 pm
Jacula

chj - I could, but it might be a bit rubbery by the time you get it in the post. I could try e-mailing it, but it might gum my computer up.
10:53 pm
renfield

i admit it - my hand does not fit a swiffer nor a toilet brush, and i don;t know nothing about loading a dishwasher
10:53 pm
stidmama

I don't actually have any eggcups, but all this talk of soft-boiled eggs makes me think maybe it would be fun.
10:54 pm
Jacula

ren - a proper pirate would have said, 'T'was I!' Aar, Jim lad.;)

stidmama

I didn't say I did housework, ren.... at least no more than I must to stay healthy! LOL no, I pretend to be a gardener and artist.
10:54 pm
chj

but im one of those compulsive nuts who has to clean the plate before it goes into the dishwasher
10:54 pm
Jacula

Loading a dishwasher is easy, ren. In this house, I just pile everything up beside him when he's near the sink.
10:54 pm
stidmama

good night Reese, enjoy Oregon!

chj - Then stick to what my Domestic Science (Scottish) teacher always told us in her Miss Jean Brodie voice, 'Wash up as you go along, gels!' I've been to quite a few school reunions now and everyone I've spoken to still hears her advice ringing in their ears, and obeys, as they cook. Me included.
