What is the meaning of the flower language of Verbena?
Let me share with you the explanation of the flower language of Verbena and its symbolism and implications in the field of green plants and flowers. Next, [] the editor will introduce it.
Today, this spice that I am sharing with my friends is a perennial erect herbaceous plant, native to Europe, considered by many as a traditional Western kitchen spice. This spice, which originated in Europe, had already silently reached China with trade teams as early as the early Song Dynasty. Su Shi, a great litterateur of the Song Dynasty, mentioned it in his work "Tupu," saying that because its spike resembles a whipstock, it was named Verbena. Although Verbena is not well-known in our country, it is considered a holy flower by many Christian friends in Europe, where its flower language represents justice and anticipation.
In Europe, Verbena is more often seen in its fresh state. It has a fresh and sweet fragrance, similar to that of fresh lemons, and is commonly found in European flower teas, fruit teas, and salads. Verbena not only has a wide audience in Europe but also reached the Americas with the footsteps of Spanish conquerors. In the Americas, people prefer to use it to adjust the aroma when grilling meat, enhancing their appetite with its fresh fragrance.
When Verbena is dried, its fragrance can still be retained quite well, and it also has a longer shelf life, making it more easily accepted by us who are familiar with the concept of spices. Some friends in our country use it to flavor cold drinks, fruit teas, and some higher-end pastries. In some creative cooking, many friends also add it to their combinations, such as using it to season some grilled steaks or adding it to Thai red curries to complement lemongrass, adjust spiciness, and enhance the layers of aroma.
In terms of pairing, Verbena is compatible with lemon grass, coriander seeds, rosemary, and dill seeds. It also has a good regulating effect on many spicy spices, such as chili peppers, black pepper, cubebs, and cubeb berries. In addition, Verbena itself has the effect of reducing greasiness, and a small amount added to dishes with a high oil content can have a nice garnishing effect. Overall, dried Verbena is a spice that can blend well into our eating habits.
