The Harpestraeng medical miscellany I´m currently studying has quite a few
medical uses for dill - leaves, seeds, root and flowers. It is not mentioned
in the recipes in the cookbook section but that doesn´t mean much, as the
manuscript probably originates in Southern Europe, where dill seems not to
have been used much in cooking, if at all.
