The magical powers of herbs are such. one's eagerness prompts one to use too much; But tis wiser to taunt than to tire the taste, And a nice moderation guards against waste.

A good rule to follow, in seasonings, therefore, Is a scant fourth teaspoon to each serving for four; And you soon will discover that herbs used with care, Will glorify all that you cook or prepare.

Dishes that simmer, or bubble or stew For long patients house - like soup or ragout - Should be given their herbs the last hour or so, For too lengthy cooking lets herb flavors go.

But dishes that cook while you hurry and fix, Should receive their herb quota right in the mix;  While cold things - like cocktail - really should sleep Overnight with their herbs to allow them to steep.
