The old heirloom variety is still rated as a high-quality Dill that is popular in German, Russian and Scandinavian cuisines. An annual herb that has been used as a medicinal and culinary herb for millennia.

The foliage is finely divided and feathery, when they are cut and dried it is referred to as dill weed. Dill weed has a more mellow flavour than dill seeds. 
The fresh foliage is great and sprinkled on new potatoes, tomatoes, fish, spinach, green beans, cucumbers, and squash.

Dill was used in many traditional medicines, including those against jaundice, headache, boils, lack of appetite, stomach problems, nausea, liver problems, and many other dills. Dill seeds can also be used to prepare herbal tea.
