| Herbs are typically the green, leafy parts of plants. General usage differs between culinary herbs and medicinal herbs. A medicinal herb may be a shrub or other woody plant, whereas a culinary herb is a non-woody plant. By contrast, the seeds, berries, bark, root, fruit, or other parts of the plant are spices. Although any of these, as well as any edible fruits or vegetables, may be considered “herbs” in medicinal or spiritual use. Culinary herbs are distinguished from vegetables in that they are used in small amounts and provide flavour rather than substance to food. |
