Curry Plant

[Guest guest]

Yes, I know the curry plant. Curry leaves are often used in Indian

cooking and I keep a package of dried ones in for that purpose. Like

all/most dried herbs, they're not as nice as the fresh ones. Last year

(or was it the year before?) I bought a curry plant to grow on my window

sill, but it didn't like the atmosphere indoors. It never flourished,

but I used its leaves until finally, once after we were away, I came

home to a few dried ones. I still think they are nicer than the

commercially grown ones ;=) If you have a balcony or a garden, you might

have good luck with them. Worth trying, certainly.

 

Best,

Pat
