Description

Dried Italian herb blend is an aromatic and versatile combination of dehydrated herbs commonly used in Mediterranean cuisine to enhance the flavor of sauces, pastas, meats, and soups. This blend typically includes ingredients such as oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary, marjoram, and sometimes dill, although the proportions may vary depending on the brand or homemade preparation.

Origin: This blend has its roots in Italian culinary tradition, where fresh and dried herbs are fundamental for creating dishes full of flavor and aroma. The dried version allows these herbs to be preserved for longer, making them easier to use in everyday cooking.

Properties: In addition to providing a characteristic and balanced flavor, dried Italian herbs possess antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties thanks to the natural compounds present in the plants that compose them. They are low in calories and contain no fat, making them an excellent option for enhancing flavor without adding extra calories.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: This blend can also be found under names such as mezcla de hierbas italianas, condimento italiano seco, or simply hierbas italianas secas. In some countries, since the blends vary, it may be presented as mezcla de especias italianas, but it always refers to a combination of dried Mediterranean herbs prepared for culinary use.
