To chop fresh dill effectively for cooking, first rinse the dill and pat it dry. Then, gather the dill into a tight bundle and use a sharp knife to finely chop it. Make sure to use a rocking motion with the knife to ensure even cuts. Avoid over-chopping to prevent the dill from becoming mushy.

What is Head fresh dill?

Dill is an herb well known for its use in flavoring pickles. Both the plant leaves "dill weed" and the seeds are used in cooking and as pickling spices. The leaves can be used dried, as you see most often in jars in spice sections of the supermarket, or used fresh, snipped straight from the fresh green plant. When "fresh dill" is an ingredient in a recipe, it is the green plant leaves (and tender stems) that are being called for. Dried dill weed can be substituted for the fresh dill weed but there will be some loss of "fresh" flavor. In general, you can substitue one teaspoon of dried herbs for one Tablespoon of fresh herbs (a 1:3 ratio). Dried herbs do lose their flavor over time, so if your jar of dill was not recently purchased, you may need to add slightly more, test the flavor and let your taste guide you. It is better to start with less dried herbs and gradually add more if needed, than to start out with too much since that can overpower the other flavors of the dish. If a recipe doesn't otherwise specify, whenever "dill" is listed as an ingredient, use the "dill weed" or leaves. Dill seed will be specifically called for if that is the intended ingredient. As a rule of thumb, you can always substitute dried herbs for fresh and fresh for dried using the 1:3 ratio of dried (1 part) to fresh (3 parts).

How much dried dill weed equals one head of fresh dill?

One head of fresh dill typically weighs around 1 ounce, which is equivalent to about 3 tablespoons of chopped fresh dill. When dried, herbs lose much of their volume, so you would need to use approximately 1 tablespoon of dried dill weed to substitute for 3 tablespoons of fresh dill. Keep in mind that dried herbs have a more concentrated flavor, so adjust the amount to taste.
