Dill and Baby Dill have far different flavors and uses
Dill has a strong anise-parsley-celery flavor, while baby dill is more subtle
and used by chefs in a wider variety of dishes. Use dill with fish, vegetables,
soups & salads, while the crowns are traditionally used for pickles.

year to buy and ways to store what's left for your next meal.
Selection Information
Usage: Fish, vegetables, soups & salads. Crown is used for pickles.
Selection: Dill has a strong anise-parsley-celery flavor. In general,
herbs should be fresh looking, crisp and brightly-colored. Keep wet or store
in an air-tight bag.
Avoid: Avoid herbs that are wilted, have dry brown areas, or are
pale or yellow in color. Slimy looking dark spots with small areas of mold
indicate old product or poor handling.
Seasonal Information
Washington dill is available from July through October.
