In almost every village in the south of France, fresh herbs flourish in the wild, on farms, and in gardens -- and they are an essential part of the country's celebrated and luscious cuisine. These appetizing meals are fragrant and tasty, with garlic, bay leaves, dill, marjoram, and more. Prepare summery tomato and tarragon soup; mushroom and basil tartlets; salmon with fennel and sorrel; chicken breasts stuffed with pistou (basil, garlic, pine nuts, and parmesan); plus other delicious dishes!
