Sage

Definition:

A fragrant herb with grayish green leaves. Sage has a pungent, slightly bitter flavor.

Common Uses

Sage is easily recognized as the predominant flavor in the traditional Thanksgiving and Christmas turkey stuffings. It is also a mainstay as a sausage seasoning.

Availability

Fresh sage is available year-round.

Forms

Dried sage comes whole, rubbed, and ground.

Storage

Store tightly covered in a dry, dark place. The dried form tends to lose flavor quickly. Store it in a cool, dry, dark place and replace it every 3 months.

Q\A:

Q: Can rubbed sage and ground sage be used interchangeably?

A: Although rubbed sage has a fluffier texture than the fine powder of ground sage, you can substitute one for the other.
