What is Spices, Dill Weed, Dried?
Spices, Dill Weed, Dried is the dried leafy part of the dill plant, with a soft herb aroma. It is different from dill seed, which tastes warmer and more spice-like. Because one plant gives both dill weed and dill seed, recipes that call for one are not direct swaps for the other without flavor changes.
Dried dill weed is extremely light and airy, so cup and spoon conversions can look surprisingly low in grams. Crushed leaves trap air and settle differently from seeds or powders. For aroma, add dill weed near the end of cooking because prolonged heat quickly fades its top notes.
Chef note:One dill plant produces both dill weed and dill seed, but chefs use them for different flavor jobs.
