Dill flowers are the delicate and aromatic flowers that bloom from the Anethum graveolens plant, a herb popular in cooking and traditional medicine. These flowers are characterized by their umbel shape, with small clusters of yellow flowers that emit a fresh, slightly anise-like, and citrusy aroma.
Origin: Dill is a plant native to the Mediterranean region and Western Asia, although today it is cultivated in many parts of the world. Dill flowers are harvested during the flowering stage, when their aroma is most intense and their flavor most delicate.
Properties: In addition to providing a subtle and delicious flavor to preparations, dill flowers contain antioxidant compounds and essential oils that may aid digestion, reduce inflammation, and offer antimicrobial properties. In cooking, they are used fresh or dried to enhance the flavor of fish, pickles, salads, sauces, and soups.
Synonyms in Spanish (Latin America): Although in most countries they are simply known as "flores de eneldo," in some regions they may be referred to as flores de aneto or flor de hinojo (although the latter term can also refer to the flower of common fennel, anise pimpinella, which is a different plant).
In summary, dill flowers are an aromatic ingredient ideal for those who wish to add a fresh and slightly anise-like touch to their recipes, providing flavor and health benefits.
