Vegetarian Herbs: Enhance Your Plant-Based Cooking
Vegetarian herbs bring life and balance to plant-based dishes. Whether you want a citrusy lift or a warm, aromatic twist, herbs make all the difference. But what are the best vegetarian herbs for cooking, and how can you use native Australian options like Lemon Myrtle and Aniseed Myrtle in your recipes?
Let’s explore how these herbs enhance flavour, where to buy them, and the simple ways to add them to your everyday vegetarian cooking. You can find Dried Lemon Myrtle, Dried Aniseed Myrtle, and the Terrablendz Native Myrtle Duo at www.terrablendz.com.au.
What are the best vegetarian herbs for cooking?
The best vegetarian herbs are those that add depth, aroma, and balance without overpowering the natural flavours of your ingredients. Common herbs like basil, rosemary, and thyme are well-loved, but native Australian herbs offer something extra — freshness and uniqueness.
Lemon Myrtle brings a strong, lemony note that works beautifully in marinades, soups, and desserts. Aniseed Myrtle, with its subtle liquorice-like flavour, adds warmth to both sweet and savoury meals. Together, they give plant-based dishes an authentic Australian twist.
These herbs don’t just add flavour; they also contain antioxidants and essential oils that support good health. Terrablendz sources their native herbs locally and dries them carefully to preserve their natural richness.
How can Lemon Myrtle be used in vegetarian recipes?
Lemon Myrtle is one of the most versatile herbs in Australian cooking. Its citrus aroma brightens almost any dish and pairs especially well with vegetarian meals.
Here are a few easy ideas:
Salad Dressings: Add a pinch to vinaigrettes for a zesty flavour boost.
Soups and Curries: Sprinkle into coconut-based curries or broths for added depth.
Roasted Vegetables: Toss pumpkin, potato, or carrot with olive oil and Lemon Myrtle before roasting.
Desserts: Mix into shortbread, cakes, or custard for a fresh lemon finish.
Each use brings out the herb’s tangy, refreshing qualities. You can find premium Australian Dried Lemon Myrtle at www.terrablendz.com.au.
What are the benefits of cooking with Aniseed Myrtle?
Aniseed Myrtle offers a warm, slightly sweet flavour that suits both savoury and sweet dishes. It adds depth and complexity without being overpowering.
Try these simple uses:
Herbal Teas: Infuse in hot water for a calming, naturally sweet drink.
Plant-Based Burgers: Mix with lentils or chickpeas to create a unique flavour base.
Vegetable Stir-Fries: Add to tofu or mixed vegetables for a fragrant touch.
Baked Treats: Stir into muffins, biscuits, or bread for a subtle, spiced sweetness.
