Using the old fashioned tradition of a sumptuous dinner, Catherine, The Herb Lady, Crowley created a 12 course menu with a focus on the flavor of one or more herbs. While this type of dinner is no longer in fashion except for special events, Catherine took the theme to showcase creative and unique ways with herbs, flavor and food. Using fresh herbs from her gardens Catherine encourages the reader to do more than cook, with herbs, but to also grow some or more of the vast, tasty, and healthy range of herbs.
