In country houses, a bag of lavender will invite moths to go elsewhere!

PROPERTIES :

A few drops in the bath to benefit from its calming and antiseptic properties. Massage on the feet after a tiring day. Its scent is calming and soothing, best used as a home fragrance. Its oil is antiseptic and bactericidal. Pure lavender relieves insect bites.

Migraine sufferers will be delighted to learn that it can put an end to the crisis.

COOKING :

The possibilities for cooking with lavender are endless. It goes very well with fruits, such as peaches and apricots. Roasted apricots with lavender honey and a lavender-flavoured ice cream are refined and delicious. All desserts welcome lavender, chocolate sweets, financiers or biscuits, crème brûlée... Its beautiful colour lends itself perfectly to the preparation of cupcakes and macaroons, very chic and trendy.

But lavender can also be used in savoury dishes, especially with beef.
