Successfully introduced a steak sauce with Garlic, Ginger and some secret ingredients. 😜
Every delicious steak you’ve ever enjoyed eating started with a good cut of meat. But picking that perfect cut can be overwhelming — and it’s not as straightforward as simply choosing the one with the highest price tag. Each cut has different qualities, and the right cut for you will rarely be the most expensive one.

Growing Dill in UAE.
You can grow Dill in trays or ground if you have place. It’s an excellent choice for your container herb garden, as well. This popular kitchen herb is used both as a spice and herb. I grow Dill as Microgreens. I use small trays and harvest it after 20 days.

Growing dill from seeds is the best option, I have been successfully growing dill from grocery bought seeds. Usually Indian groceries here in the UAE sells Dill Seeds. Check the spice section.

Tips:
Instead of growing dill seeds in seed trays, sow them directly in desired pots as dill plants form long taproots and don’t transplant well.

Sprinkle dill seeds in pots and cover them with a 1/4-inch layer of soil mix. I usually use the potting soil from store, I don't mix anything else, just directly use the potting soil.

Keep the soil evenly moist while the seeds germinate, which is usually 7 to 10 days. You’ll have to wait longer at times, so don't lose patience.

You can plant seeds in summer as well if it’s cool in your area. Like not too much direct sunlight and some shades. Shield it from the afternoon sun and hot wind and water it more often to keep the soil evenly moist.

Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Similarly, don’t practice overhead watering to stop fungal diseases and water around the base of the plant.

Harvesting:
Harvest the fresh fronds to prepare salads, vegetables, sauces, meat, seafood, fish and curry dishes and use the seeds to flavor pickles, stews, sauerkraut, rice, and bread.

Pinch back the top growing tips of young 4-5 inches tall dill plant to make it bushier as you do with other herbs.

If you’re harvesting this herb regularly, you don’t need to prune it.

Don’t trim more than 1/3 of its growth at one time for either pruning or harvesting.

Trimming the leaves from the top promotes bushier Dill growth. This forces the plant to grow outward instead of upward.

Never allow your dill plant to flower unless you want to collect the seeds. This step increases it's vegetative life.

Why a classic car? A less efficient vehicle, with none of the modern amenities, that needs more maintenance and can at any time suffer a failure? Why?
