Yes! There is a difference…for the most part, the differnence is in the intensity of flavor. Use 1/2 the amount of dried herbs when a recipe calls for “fresh”. The fresh herbs should generally be added towards the end of a cooking process to preserve color and “freshness”. Likewise, if a recipe calls for dried herbs such as; ground, minced or powdered, then doulble the portion for “fresh” to equal flavor intensity.
