Sage leaves each have their own intense flavor. The bitter, camphor-like mild flavor is especially appreciated in Mediterranean cuisine.

Tips & Preparation:
The people of Central Europe appreciate sage's mild flavor and use it in greasy or oil-containing foods. Duck, goose and pork are often seasoned with sage. The Greeks love it for meat stews, chicken dishes or as a tea. Tip: In dry form, the flavor is stronger and can be used more effectively.
