Dill is a soft, fern-like herb that's part of the carrot family and has long been valued in both cooking and traditional remedies. Its delicate green leaves are often used to flavor fish, soups, and salads, while its seeds and leaves add a tang to pickles and spice mixes. Dill is not just a culinary herb. The name “dill” comes from the Old Norse word “dilla,” meaning “to lull,” as it has long been brewed into tea to ease digestion and promote sleep. Many people use dill successfully to reduce hiccups and flatulence.
