If using dried herbs: use 1-2 teaspoons of dried herb for each cup (8 ounces) of water, or 1 ounce per each pint. Steep the herbs for 10 minutes in water that has just been boiled. Then strain the infusion.

If using fresh herbs: use 3 teaspoons of the fresh plant parts per each pint of water. Make the same way as above, and strain.

You can make the concoction in cup-sized doses or larger teapot doses. If using for medicinal value, the infusion should be consumed in 8-ounce doses, three times a day.

For storage: cover mixture, store in a cool place, and use within 24 hours.

A decoction is also similar to an infusion, and necessary when using tougher plant material like herbal roots, barks, seeds, berries, and stems. These parts need to have their active components extracted in a more intense process.

Chop up the plant material thinly. Use 1-2 teaspoons of the dried herbs for 1 pints of water.

Place the herbs in a saucepan with the water, and boil the decoction.

Simmer the mixture until the volume of the liquid has been reduced by about a third. This will take about 15 minutes.

Strain the mixture.

The decoction should be used in three wine-glass-sized doses throughout the day. It should be stored in a pitcher in a cool place.

The decoction can be reheated and flavored with a little honey if desired.

Tinctures

A tincture is a liquid herbal preparation in which the active ingredient of an herb is extracted with alcohol. Tinctures can be prepared in large volumes and stored for a long time, available at hand to be used in quick preparations of infusions, creams, and other herbal recipes.

Vodka is a good choice to use since it is more tasteless than most other alcohol. A standard herbal tincture should have 1 fluid ounce of pure alcohol for every 3 ounces of water; essentially 25% alcohol.

You can prepare a tincture using either dried or fresh herbs, but be sure to cut the herbs into small pieces first.

If using dried herbs: put 8 ounces of the dried herb into a large, glass jar and pour in 1 pints of the liquid mixture. If using powder, 1 oz. of powder to 5 oz. of liquid mixture a 1:5 ratio.

If using fresh herbs: you will need three times as much of the herb. Use 1 1/2 pounds of the herb for 1 1/2 pints of the liquid mixture. Put herbs and mixture in a large, glass jar.

Store the jar in a cool, dark place for at least two weeks. Make sure to shake the mixture every day.

Filter the mixture through a wine press, cheesecloth bag, coffee filter, or fine cloth, capturing the tincture liquid below in another container.

Store the tincture in clean, dark glass containers, out of the sun. If stored properly the tincture will be preserved for two or more years.

Syrups

You can make an herbal infusion, decoction, or tincture into a syrup, using sugar or honey as a preservative. Herbal syrups are soothing for coughs, sore throats, and other common respiratory ailments.

First make an infusion, decoction, or tincture according to the above directions, and strain.

For each pint of liquid add one pound of unrefined sugar or honey.

Stir mixture together in a saucepan and boil until the sugar or honey has dissolved completely. The mixture has become syrup at this point.

Let the syrup cool.

Store the syrup in dark, glass bottles capped with a cork or another non-sealing lid. It is important that the syrup is not kept in a tightly sealed container because as the syrup begins to ferment it may cause the bottle to explode.

Store in the refrigerator.

Tonic Wines

Like herbal tea, a glass of tonic wine is a delicious way to intake herbal remedies. Using root remedies of tonic herbs like ginger or licorice can be a refreshing remedy for ailments. Choose a tonic herb to suit your needs and then begin preparation.

Fill a large glass pot, jar, or vat with your chosen tonic herb.

Pour in a good quality red wine, covering the herbs.

Leave the mix for at least 2 weeks.

Filtering out the liquid, drink the mixture in one sherry-sized glass (2-3 fluid ounces) dose per day.

As you pour out the liquid, keep adding more red wine to cover the herb so it doesn't get moldy.

This mixture will last you for several months, as the wine continues to extract the active components of the herbal roots, before the herbs will need to be replaced.

Infused Oils

You can make multi-purpose herbal oils that can be used for cooking or massaging into sore body parts. Herbal oils can be prepared through either cold or hot infusion. You can select any kind of vegetable oil to extract the active constituents from the herbs, the best being olive, canola, sesame, and almond oils.

Herb Oil Recipe

5 sprigs of fresh rosemary (substitute thyme, tarragon, oregano).3 bay leaves2 cups extra-virgin Greek Olive Oil.Place rosemary and bay leaves in a sterilized jar or bottle with tight fitting lid. Add olive oil and seal. Store oil in a cool, dark place for a few weeks until ready to use. Enjoy!!Cold Infusion

Obtain a large jar with a tightly sealing lid, and fill it compactly with herb flowers or leaves.

Pour in the oil, covering the herbs, and screw on the lid.

Place jar on a sunny window sill for about a month. Remember to shake the mixture daily.

Strain the mixture, capturing the oil in another container.

Transfer the oil into a dark bottle, and store in a cool, dark place.

Hot Infusion

For dried herbs: for each 2 cups of oil use 1 cup of dried herbs.

For fresh herbs: for each 2 cups of oil use 2 cups of fresh herbs.

Prepare a glass bowl over a pot of simmering water. Place the herbs and oil in the glass bowl.

Heat mixture slowly over low heat for about 3 hours.

Strain into a bowl. Let the oil cool, then transfer into dark, glass bottles sealed with a cap. Store in a cool, dark place.

Creams

You can make herbal skin cream with a simple recipe, combining herbs of your choice with an emulsifying cream.

Melt about 2 tablespoons of emulsifying cream in a bowl placed over a pot of boiling water.

Add one large tablespoon of dried herbs to the mixture. Stir slowly until you see the cream taking on the color of the herbs.

Remove the mixture from heat and strain. Squeeze out the remaining liquid from the clump.

Allow the cream to cool in a glass bowl.

Spoon the cream into small, dark bottles, and store in a cool, dark place. Cream will be preserved for use for up to one year.

Salves and Ointments

Choose herbs with healing, soothing properties to prepare your own salves and ointments to apply to sore skin and wounds. Simply combine an infused oil with chosen herbs and beeswax.

Pour 3-4 fluid ounces of an infused oil into a glass bowl, and place over a pot of boiling water.

Add a small, square piece of beeswax to the infused oil, stirring constantly until the wax has completely melted. The beeswax will thicken the mixture, giving it just the right consistency.

Pour the warm liquid into small, dark ointment jars.

Store in a cool, dark place.

STORING YOUR HERBS

Whole herbs/spices will last longer than crushed or ground herbs. Many people prefer to buy the whole form and crush or grind their herb/spice as needed. Herbs/spices can be crushed with a mortar and pestle, or ground in a coffee grinder. Check all herb/spices for freshness at least once each year. If the herb/spice has lost it aroma, it should be replaced. Heat, sunlight, and dampness will cause herb/spices to lose their flavor and aroma quickly.Store in cool area away from light and dampness. Check often.

ADDING HERBS TO YOUR FAVORITE FOODS

Use strong, pungent spices in small quantities. Use more delicate seasonings in larger quantities. Herbs are used to enhance the flavor. If you use too much of an herb, you will overpower the flavor of the food. Start with teaspoon (except for red pepper which would be considerably less) to a pint of a liquid such as a sauce, soup, etc.; also use only teaspoon to one lb. of meat unless you are following a specific recipe. Remember less is more always start with a small quantity of an herb or spice you can always add to a recipe.

When using dried herbs, use a 1:3 ratio one part dried herbs to 3 parts fresh herbs. Dried herbs are more flavorful and potent, with a concentrated flavor.

Whole Spices1. Tie herbs and spices in a cheesecloth, nylon net, or muslin bag for easy removal. 2. Add whole herbs and spices at the start of cooking in recipes that will cook for an hour or longer, such as soups and stews. Taste frequently.3. Seeds used for flavor can be toasted briefly to bring out the flavor.Crushed or Ground Herbs and Spices1. Add about 15 minutes before the end of the cooking time as flavors in crushed and ground spices are released quickly.2. Freshly ground pepper has a strong flavor. Add slowly.3. For cold foods, add the spices several hours before serving. Herbs and spices take longer to release their flavors in cold foods.4. Marinate steak about one hour ahead of cooking/grilling - brush with oil, sprinkle with herbs and refrigerate until needed. 5. Meatloaf, hamburgers etc., add herbs while you mix.RECIPESFor a delicious stew seasoning, combine equal portions of whole Bay Leaves, Thyme Leaves, Parsley and Marjoram. Tie up the herbs in cheesecloth and drop in. Taste frequently to determine what level of seasoning you want. Remove when the flavor is perfect for you.For a Provencal Mix, combine equal portions of Tarragon Leaves, Thyme Leaves, Sage Leaves, Onion Powder. Salt to taste. Use with pork, chicken and fish.
