Dr Alan Saunders - what a brilliant, extraordinary, lovely man he was. (I hope the ABC will one day re-air his unique broadcasts.) It made me happy just to hear you mention his name! Good luck and best wishes to you Mr Hemphill - you too are a gem.
Brendan Carroll A good question BRENDAN basically a herb is the leaf of a plant that we use in cooking where as a spice can come from any other part of the plants such as the buds the bark the roots the berries the seeds from the herb plant when it is finished flowering like coriander seed and also Spices come from other unusual parts of plants such as saffron which comes from the stigma of an autumn flowering Crocus and vanilla which is the bean from a tropical climbing orchid native to Mexico. Happy Spicing

How exciting. Please do speak more about the history of spices and places of origin.
Aussie Girl Thanks for that feedback, I’ll work on it soon. Cheers
What is the difference between an herb and a spice? Just curious
