Dried dill is a herb used in small amounts to season food. The figures here describe dill in its dried form. Per 100g, it provides 42g of carbohydrate, 20g of protein and 4.4g of fat. It also contains vitamins and minerals, including calcium at 1780mg per 100g.

Calcium helps maintain bones and teeth and supports normal muscle function. Dried dill also contains iron, which is needed to make haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. The amounts used in cooking are generally much smaller than 100g, so their contribution to nutrient intake will be correspondingly lower. Full nutrient figures are provided in the tables below.
