Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
Cooks either buy them or grow them, but herbs have become essential ingredients in the average kitchen. Herbal entrepreneurs actively engaged in aspects of growing, selling, teaching, or writing have contributed recipes to this compendium featuring tasty mixtures aimed at enhancing everything from appetizers to entrees. Blends to flavor cheese spreads and potato dishes are followed by spicy combinations for pastas, soups, vegetables, and main dishes of meat, fish, or poultry. Ethnic fare and blended herbs for assorted teas complete the offerings. Of particular interest are the brief introductions to individual herbalists. Alice Joyce --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Review
Herb Mixtures & Spicy Blends is a money saving compendium of seasonings that anyone can make at home. From herbal teas to popcorn seasoning, from no-salt blends to spicy ethnic mixes, Herb Mixtures & Spicy Blends offers more than 100 easy, delicious, and healthful eating recipes from herb shops and herb farms across North America. These are recipes that add flavor, not salt or fat. There are ethnic blends (including Mexican, Cajun, Thai, Indian, and Italian, as well as homemade customized seasonings for seafood, wild game, chicken or beef. Also featured are recipes for using blends in appetizers, vegetable dishes, main courses, desserts, snacks, and teas. Further enhancing the value of Herb Mixtures & Spicy Blends are instructions for drying and storing herbs, bottling and labeling mixtures, and suggestions for creating gift baskets. Herb Mixtures & Spicy Blends is a very special addition to any personal or library cookbook collection. -- Midwest Book Review

4.0 out of 5 stars Herb Mixtures and Spicy Blends, June 28, 2000
By A Customer
While mainly a book of recipes of blends, the Introduction also contains good information on drying your own fresh herbs, seeds, and freezing fresh herb; as well as helpful information on storing herb mixtures. An added bonus is are helpful suggestions on packaging blends for gifts. There are recipes for appetizers, butters, dressings, no-salt blends, meat, seafood,traditional blends such as Italian, Pumpkin pie spice, bread and dessert blends; and some "not so traditional" such as "Wassail Spice Mix", for a punch. I especially like this book because after each formula there are suggested uses and a recipe using the blend. Each page also has a little history about where the blend comes from. Good Book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for any cook or cook wanna-be, October 5, 2003
By A Customer
Most people are a bit timid about trying new spices or blends in their cooking. The great thing about this book is that it gives you not only the directions to make your own blend (thus saving you lots of money!) but suggestions on how and when to use them. This is a must have for the timid cook to those that experiment with their own blends! It gives great suggestions and has a wonderful variety.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Ideas for You and to Give, December 28, 2002
By C. Anderson (Grand Marais, MN United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have only really looked through this book, but I am already very excited to own it. Tonight I made the Pumpkin Pie Nut Mix and it was fantastic. I can't wait to try the other spice blends in the book. This would be great for the person who loves to cook and experiment in the kitchen.

3.0 out of 5 stars My own fault for an average review.
I was hoping for more on the spice and less on the herbs. In any case, if you want more on the herb side, give it an extra star.
