No matter the cuisine, the flavor and smell gives the core idea about the dish. Different types of recipes add different flavoring agents like spices and herbs. Most of us purchase them in their dried forms to enhance the flavor of our dish. But how better would it be if you could pluck the leaves from the herb and add them afresh?
Nigel’s eco-store is now equipped with the right herb for the right dish to be grown right inside your kitchen. The bean-pod is a bean shaped basket with a disc of compressed coco fibre peat which swells up just enough to fill the lower half of the pod when water is poured. The Bean Pod measures 16cm x 6.5cm x 8cm – 6 x 2.5 x 3in (approx) and costs £6.99.
The Bean Pod comes with a sucker. Attach it to the window and the bean pod to the sucker. Nigel’s eco-store sells basil, chives and parsley seeds. Sow the seed of your choice into the Bean Pod.
With minimum care to keep the soil moist and the herb is all yours, at an arms distance for your delicious daily cooking in a couple of weeks. When you’ve used up all of the herb, you have to sow seeds just as before and continue to enjoy its freshness in your dishes. The Bean Pod is made in the UK so has a minimal carbon footprint, and is reusable time and time again. So no more stepping out of home to buy your favorite herb you can not compromise on.
