Culinary herbs and spices have been recognised globally for their
dietary and medicinal uses for centuries. A growing body of
research is acknowledging their health-promoting properties as well
as their therapeutic potential with reference to a number of
chronic non-communicable diseases including cancer and type 2
diabetes. The aim of this book is to bring together current
knowledge of thirty of the most commonly used culinary herbs and
spices globally in an accessible dictionary format. For each
culinary herb or spice the following is covered: origin and history
of use, including their use in food preservation and for medicinal
purposes; nutritional composition; chemistry; sensory properties;
adulteration; current and emerging research concerning their
bioactive properties and their health promoting and therapeutic
potential; safety; and adverse effects. The book is a central
source of information for those who have a general interest in
these foods, are studying plant and food science and nutrition, and
who practice or have an interest in the culinary arts.
