5. Make the most of your home-grown produce
There’s nothing more rewarding than using the produce you’ve grown. But sometimes it’s easy to produce more than we can consume. This is where drying and preserving produce comes in handy, especially herbs. The Burgon and Ball Herb Dryer will ensure that you have tasty dried herbs to flavour your cooking throughout the year. |
