Dill Sprouts Seeds

Dill sprouts carry the whole aroma of the herb in a tiny feathery shoot, clean and lightly aniseed. They germinate in five to eight days and are ready in ten to fourteen, and they finish fish, potatoes and yoghurt perfectly.

Dill seed is slow to start, so keep the tray moist and stay patient through the first week. Sow thinly and give the shoots air, and they come up fine and upright.
