Common uses: Soups, stocks, stews, potatoes, beans, salads and savoury sauces.
Pairs well with: Parsley, thyme, bay, garlic, potato, tomato and pulses.
How to use: Use sparingly, adding early to soups and stews or crushing into seasoning blends.
Compare with: Much stronger and more concentrated than celery leaf.
Substitute: Celery leaf or celery seed can substitute, though with a cleaner and less rounded flavour.
Storage: Keep sealed away from light and moisture.
Good to know: Lovage can give a broth-like depth without meat, which makes it especially valuable in vegetable soups and pulse dishes.

Best for soup
Soup with pork, beef or chicken becomes richer without adding Maggi or so. Use carefully. It has a strong taste. I will not miss it. Not even with boullion.
-
Essential for nearly every soup
The taste is like Maggi. But it makes the smell of a soup richer.
