herbs and spices

Herbs are the leafy part of a plant to add flavor to foods.Some have medicinal value. Spices are obtained from roots, flowers, fruits, seeds or bark. Spices often are more potent and stronger flavored than herbs; as a result they typically are used in smaller amounts. Some spices are used not only to add taste, but also as a preservative.

I think herbs can be grown in gardens and spices are usually dry and imported. Herbs usually contain greenery and spices are dry for the most part.

Herbs are condiments that you gather on foods.. Spices are flavors that complements the food that you are eating.

Herbs are used to bring out the flavours in the food and compliment the flavours in the dish, spices are used to add to the flavours and some are used give it a kick! lol
