Sage

Sage is a hardy, evergreen perennial herb known for its aromatic grey-green leaves and striking purple flowers. Highly valued in both culinary and ornamental gardens, it thrives in a variety of conditions and is well-suited for pots or garden beds. With its rich, earthy fragrance and slightly peppery taste, Sage has been a staple in kitchens for centuries. Regular pruning encourages fresh growth, ensuring a continuous supply of flavorful leaves throughout the year.

Beyond its culinary uses, its attractive foliage and blooms make it a beautiful addition to any herb garden. This low-maintenance plant is easy to grow, requiring only well-drained soil and moderate watering. Whether used fresh or dried, Sage remains a favorite among home cooks and gardeners alike.

Usage
Sage is widely used in cooking for its strong, slightly bitter flavor that pairs especially well with rich dishes. A little goes a long way, making it a perfect herb for enhancing meats, particularly pork, as well as stuffing, soups, and sauces. Its robust taste also complements roasted vegetables, butter-based sauces, and even teas. For best results, use fresh leaves for a more delicate flavor or dry them for a stronger, concentrated taste. Regular harvesting will keep your plant healthy and productive. Whether in home kitchens or gourmet recipes, Sage adds depth and aroma to a wide range of dishes.
