Product Description
Organic Lavender is floral, piney, woody and herbal. Its delicate purple flowers are particularly popular in French cookery.
Steenbergs sources premium organic Lavender that it packs down in small batches to maximise its floral flavour.
Add Organic Lavender to salad dressings or rub into meats like lamb. Mix lavender with icing sugar for a floral icing that’s great on cupcakes or to flavour ice-cream, shortbread and cakes. Substitute Lavender for Rosemary to give a more floral and less intense flavour.
Axel’s Tasting Notes: Floral; camphor-like, piney and floral, with hints of citrus, mint and rosemary.
