Many chefs have a hard time coming up with herb and food pairings that taste good together without doing a little research, but since we don't have test kitchens in our homes it's easier to find good flavor combos by consulting the 'net.
That way you can take your chicken game beyond parsley, sage and thyme and discover beef doesn't go well with basil, mint or sage without ruining the meal.
PersonalCreations.com created The Essential Herb & Food Pairing Guide to help us avoid making bad herbal decisions in the kitchen, and while the guide is by no means comprehensive it does cover the basics plus a few less common ingredients like mango, fig and plum.
