This is a comic essay about her "herb life" by illustrator and writer Otagaki Haruko, who grows and eats many condiments and herbs on the balcony of her home.
We will introduce you to a little economical and good lifestyle where you can grow your own condiments and herbs at home and enjoy them deliciously.
Growing it at home is convenient and economical!
It's fresh and delicious because it's eaten right away!
In addition to introducing how to grow and eat (recipes) 18 types of herbs that Otagaki-san actually used, the book also includes more advanced information from experts (professionals).
In addition, you will learn everything about herbs from scratch, including how to grow them, how to deal with insects and diseases, and how to preserve them, so even beginners can feel at ease.
I want to eat it because it's delicious and healthy, but it's surprisingly expensive and doesn't last long.
Why not start living a better life by having such herbs (condiments and herbs) at home?
