    Dill is such an interesting aromatic herb!! I remember one time I opened a box of triscuits that had a sample of dill seeds tucked inside the inner flap of the box, and I grew some in my garden that year! I was surprised at how many uses there are for dill…including making your own dill pickles! Thanks for these magnificent recipes, I’ll have to grow more dill now!
