I am planting a lot right now as we are heading into the rainy season. I would like to have
some herb guilds but unfortunately this requires cooking knowledge, which i am working
on expanding. I have an example of what i am talking about that i am planting now.
THAI GUILD
Tomato
Basil
Chili Peppers
Lemon grass
Garlic
Ginger
Chives
Mung Bean Sprouts
Does anyone have any other ideas for plant groupings that can all be used for specific dishes?
Or... any additions to this Thai guild?
Of course dwarf coconuts but i am working on that.
thank ya'll
