Lavender
 |
Lavender is an uncommon spice. It should be used with care and only for robust dishes, since its flavour tends to dominate, imparting a perfumed, slightly bitter and disagreeable odor to the food if overdosed. Cookbooks suggest lavender for meat (mutton with its strong flavor is an obvious choice) and fish. Add lavender to shortbread for the most delicious lavender butter cookies.
