Dill is commonly used to elevate the flavor of various dishes. It’s often paired with salmon, potatoes, and yogurt-based sauces.
When used in cooking, dill leaves will lose flavor the longer it is cooked, therefore it should be added at the last minute only.
Dill grows in bunches. The dill plant (Anethum graveolens) grows to a height of 8-30 inches. The leaves are feathery and fernlike. In the wild, it looks almost like a long grass, with thin, wiry leaves. The dill plant is native to Russia, West Africa, and the Mediterranean.
Dill is rich in several nutrients and has traditionally been used to treat various ailments, including digestive issues, colic in infants, and bad breath.
