Herbs and spices are among the most versatile ingredients in food
processing, and alongside their sustained popularity as flavourants
and colourants they are increasingly being used for their natural
preservative and potential health-promoting properties. An
authoritative new edition in two volumes, Handbook of herbs and
spices provides a comprehensive guide to the properties, production
and application of a wide variety of commercially-significant herbs
and spices. Volume 1 begins with an introduction to herbs and
spices, discussing their definition, trade and applications. Both
the quality specifications for herbs and spices and the quality
indices for spice essential oils are reviewed in detail, before the
book goes on to look in depth at individual herbs and spices,
ranging from basil to vanilla. Each chapter provides detailed
coverage of a single herb or spice and begins by considering
origins, chemical composition and classification. The cultivation,
production and processing of the specific herb or spice is then
discussed in detail, followed by analysis of the main uses,
functional properties and toxicity. With its distinguished editor
and international team of expert contributors, the two volumes of
the new edition of Handbook of herbs and spices are an essential
reference for manufacturers using herbs and spices in their
products. They also provide valuable information for nutritionists
and academic researchers.
