Dill weed consists of the entire plant with its finely divided leaves, small flowers, and immature fruits. It's also known as dill seed. The seeds can be used fresh or dried. Dill seed is a small, dry fruit that splits into two flat, elliptical parts at maturity. Each part contains one seed and has a brown color with a lighter edge. Dill plants are grown as annuals and require cool temperatures. They have an upright growth habit similar to fennel. In ancient Roman times, dill was seen as a symbol of vitality. The plant's fruits are used as a spice in North African meat dishes and traditional Scandinavian seafood recipes, such as crayfish or salmon. The name "dill" comes from the Old Norse word "dilla", which means to lull or soothe.

How to use:   

To prepare a decoction, combine 1 tablespoon of dried plant material (such as roots, barks, seeds, or berries) with 1 cup of water in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 30-60 minutes. Strain the liquid and extract as much moisture as possible before serving.
