UPDATE: *It's time. Yes! Purchase fresh herbs for fish, pasta, and salad. But don't ignore dried herbs and spices. Their shelf life is much longer than fresh seasonings (budget-friendly)...Mid-Springtime is a perfect time to replenish those cans and jars of your faves... Herbs and spices can last up to a few years but sometimes the aroma and flavor will be less than more. So, freshen up!
