Lavender is renowned for its calming and soothing scent.

Dried lavender flowers can be used in potpourri, sachets, or homemade aromatherapy products like lavender pillows or eye masks. They can also be added to baths for a relaxing soak.

It has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for its potential health benefits, including promoting relaxation and reducing anxiety.

Flavour & aroma

Highly aromatic with floral, herbal and slightly sweet notes. Used sparingly, it’s delicate and elegant; overused, it can quickly become soapy or medicinal.

Common culinary uses

  • Baking – shortbread, biscuits, cakes
  • Desserts – creams, custards, ice cream
  • Sugar infusions – lavender sugar for baking or drinks
  • Teas & infusions – calming herbal teas
  • Savoury dishes – lamb, chicken, herby rubs
  • Herb blends – herbes de Provence

Lavender is more of an accent than a bulk ingredient.

Using lavender flowers

  • Use very small amounts – a pinch goes a long way
  • Infuse, then strain for controlled flavour
  • Grind lightly to distribute evenly
  • Pair with fat or sugar to soften intensity

Tip: If you can smell it strongly in the jar, use less than you think you need.
