Description
- ROSEMARY LEAVES - Rosemary dried leaves are the dried leaves of the rosemary plant, scientifically known as Rosmarinus officinalis. Rosemary is a fragrant and flavorful herb that is commonly used in cooking to add flavor to various dishes, particularly in Mediterranean cuisine. When the leaves of the rosemary plant are dried, they become more concentrated in flavor and aroma.
- SEASONING AND FLAVORING - Rosemary leaves are often used as a seasoning for meats, such as chicken, beef, and lamb. They pair well with roasted or grilled meats and can be used in marinades, rubs, or simply sprinkled on top of the meat before cooking. Rosemary leaves can also be used to add flavor to vegetables, such as roasted potatoes, carrots, and squash. They can be added to the vegetables before roasting or simply sprinkled on top after cooking.
- BREAD AND BAKED GOODS - Rosemary leaves can be used to add flavor to bread and other baked goods. Simply add chopped fresh or dried rosemary leaves to the dough or batter before baking. Rosemary leaves can be added to soups and stews to add flavor and depth. They pair well with hearty soups and stews, such as beef or lamb stew.
- ROSEMARY TEA - Boil 1 cup of water in a small pot or kettle. Place 1 tablespoon of dried rosemary leaves in a tea infuser or strainer and place it in a cup. Pour the hot water over the rosemary leaves in the cup. Steep the tea for 5-10 minutes, depending on how strong you like your tea. Remove the infuser or strainer and discard the used rosemary leaves. Add honey or lemon to taste, if desired. Enjoy your delicious and fragrant rosemary tea.
- STORAGE DIRECTIONS - Dried rosemary leaves can be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, such as a pantry or cupboard. Make sure the container is tightly sealed to prevent moisture from getting in, which can cause the leaves to lose their flavor. Dried rosemary leaves can last for several months if stored properly.
