Dill
A herb classically used with salmon
Dill is a herb that has a traditional affinity with fish, especially salmon.
A member of the fennel family, it has a softer, warmer, less aniseedy flavour than its cousins.
Dill is also widely used as a flavouring in pickles and chutneys, especially in eastern Europe, and is delicious with hot buttered potatoes as a side dish.
It is also the main active ingredient in gripe water, used to soothe colic in babies, and is said to aid digestion.
