Dried, cut basil is a convenient and long-lasting alternative to fresh basil. It is obtained by gently drying the leaves, which extends the herb's shelf life but loses some of its intense, fresh flavor. While fresh basil has a sweet, slightly peppery aroma, the dried variety develops a more concentrated, slightly earthier flavor that is less volatile. In cooking, dried basil is often used in dishes that require longer cooking times, as it retains its flavor well, unlike the fresh variety. It is excellent in tomato sauces, soups, stews, marinades, and braised dishes. Because the flavor is less intense, it can be used more liberally. It is often used as part of a spice blend or as a complement to other herbs such as oregano and thyme to add depth to Mediterranean dishes. While it cannot replace the unique, fresh flavor of fresh basil, it is a reliable ingredient for adding a spicy, herbal touch to dishes.

Schabzigerklee is a powerful and highly aromatic herb that plays a particularly important role in Swiss and Tyrolean cuisine. It is a type of fenugreek (Trigonella caerulea), but has a distinctly different flavor profile than the more familiar fenugreek. Its aroma is unique: savory, intensely spicy, and with a nutty, slightly cheesey note reminiscent of celery. This special flavor makes it an essential ingredient in the famous Glarner Schabziger, a traditional Swiss grated cheese. Schabzigerklee also has other uses. It is usually used dried and ground to flavor bread, soups, potato dishes, and spreads. Due to its dominant flavor, Schabzigerklee should be used sparingly.

Ceylon cinnamon, often called "true cinnamon," originates from Sri Lanka and is considered the finest variety of cinnamon. The whole cinnamon sticks are light brown and consist of several thin, brittle layers of bark that form a fine, tender roll. This characteristic clearly distinguishes it from the thicker, harder cassia cinnamon.
Its flavor is more delicate, sweeter, and more complex than Cassia cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon has a warm, floral aroma with nuances of clove and citrus, but is less dominant. It's excellent for enhancing delicate dishes without overpowering them. The whole sticks are ideal for cooking in teas, mulled wine, compotes, and desserts. Thanks to its very low coumarin content, Ceylon cinnamon is considered a safer choice for regular consumption.

In Ayurveda, Ceylon cinnamon is considered a warming and harmonizing spice. Due to its sweet and spicy flavors (rasa), it is primarily used to calm Vata and Kapha. It helps strengthen the digestive fire (Agni), which promotes digestion and prevents the accumulation of waste products (Ama). Traditionally, Ceylon cinnamon is also used to support the respiratory system and the circulatory system. People with a dominant Pitta constitution should consume it only in moderation due to its heating effect.
