Herbs and spices vocabulary
Spices and herbs are both used to flavor foods, but
while spices refer to products that come from the root, stem, seed, fruit or
flower of a plant, the herbs come from the leafy green part of a plant.
Подправките и билките се използват за овкусяване на храната, но докато подправките се отнасят за онези продукти, които получаваме от корена, стъблото, семките, плодовете или цветовете на растението, то билките получаваме от листовидната зелена част на растенията.
Most people add herbs and spices to their meals for
the flavor and depth they add to any food. Herbs and spices are
packed with nutrition, antioxidants and other phytochemicals that can add
therapeutic value to your food, helping you live a longer, more healthy life.
Повечето хора добавят билки и подправки към своите ястия заради това, че овкусяват и обогатяват всяко ястие.
Билките
и подправките са богати на хранителни вещества, антиоксиданти
и други фитохимикали, които
могат да придадат терапевтична стойност на храната ви, и да ви помогнат да
живеете по-дълъг и по-здравословен живот.
