Delicious recipe ideas using fresh herbs YUMMY!
Poached pears with thyme and Greek yoghurt
Klara and Ida tested the CUBE 14 for us and created a delicious dessert using herbs.
Here is the recipe for 5-6 people:
- 4-6 quality pears
- 400-500ml clear apple juice
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 pinch salt
- 5 stems thyme, chopped
- 500g Greek yoghurt
Method:
Peel the pears and place in a small pot. Add the apple juice, honey and bring to the boil. Season with a pinch of salt. Add the chopped thyme stems and simmer for 20 minutes or until the pears are soft but do not fall apart. Arrange the Greek yoghurt on dessert places. Place a pear on each plate, on top of the yoghurt, and drizzle with the apple, honey and thyme sauce.
Dry or freeze herbs?
Dry highly aromatic herbs such as oregano, rosemary, peppermint or sage. The best method is to take the freshly picked herbs and place them on packing paper or crepe paper and let them dry in a warm place. Or hang herbs such as lavender from the ceiling like small bouquets. By the way, it can take up to 10 days until the herbs are bone dry – do not store them until then!
Some herbs are better suited for freezing because they lose their flavour when dried. This is true for all herbs that have a light, fleeting character or pungent flavours such as basil, parsley, chives or dill. Simply chop freshly picked herbs and store them in a resealable freezer bag in your freezer.
