This table gives some suggestions based off of what has worked for MTFers and commercial breweries. It is not a completely exhaustive list, and you are encouraged to add your experiences and experiment outside of this list. Before using anything, be sure that it is safe to use and does not pose a health risk. Parts of some plants which that have other parts commonly used for spices as well as plants similar to those used as spices can be toxic (e.g. Rhubarb leaves, parts of elderberry plants, some varieties of juniper). Similarly, if foraging always be 100% sure of what you are picking. Take someone with you with experience if you do not have the appropriate experience and take pictures of what you pick. There is a saying "There are old mycologists and bold mycologists but there are no old & bold mycologists." First and foremost be careful when foraging anything.

- Fresh living herbs can taste and give off drastically different flavors and concentrations than dried or dried/ crushed versions and can also be very different than powdered forms. This may be especially true of more delicate and tender herbs such as lavender, lemon balm , dandelion, wood sorrel and fresh basil, compared to herbs such as thyme, rosemary, fennel and other more fibrous herbs.
