About Hambleden:
Hambleden Herbs is a long established organic brand with a reputation for high quality products and efficient, friendly service. Their products have won many awards over the years, a recognition of the quality of the Soil Association certified organic herbs, spices, teas and tinctures which have always been their speciality.
Life for Hambleden Herbs began back in 1982 on an organic herb farm in the small village of Hambleden in the Oxford shire countryside. In 1985 our dried herb range was launched and at the time was the only certified organic range of dried herbs in the UK. With the launch of our organic herbal tea range 4 years later, Hambleden Herbs was fast becoming the brand of choice for the informed consumer.
As interest in organic ingredients increased demand soon outstripped available supply from the farm and the business had to look further a field to secure supply of top quality, certified, organic ingredients. This resulted in a new focus for the business, and a new company being set up to specialise in the sourcing and importing of raw materials. Although the two businesses now operate separately, they continue to use some of the same suppliers that they did 20 years ago, and still call on the wealth of expertise and knowledge of their old partner.
Today Hambleden Herbs continues to hold true to its values of “Purity, Vitality and Integrity”, using them to inspire new blends of teas, herbs and spices that will excite and awaken your senses.
Usage
The pungent, slightly sweet, aromatic, anise flavour of Caraway makes it a perfect partner to fatty meats or hearty cakes and steamed puddings, as well giving a great lift to any vegetable. It has a great affinity with cabbage and when gently fried in butter with some blanched, thinly cut cabbage will create a wonderful dish that even the most ardent cabbage hater will struggle not to enjoy
Widely used in Europe to flavour bread and cakes, it is equally at home in a sweet dish as a savoury one. Try a few seeds in dumplings as a perfect partner for goulash.

Try stir frying with cabbage and bacon and a knob of butter. Also delicious tossed into carrots and other root vegetables.
