An essential English herb (along with parsley, rosemary and thyme, as the song goes), sage is a flavorful herb from the mint family. Dried sage leaf provides a rich, almost peppery flavor, thatâ€s slightly bitter with notes of earthy pine. Used most commonly in poultry stuffing, sage has many uses in the kitchen. The herbâ€s bold flavor is a key ingredient in pork sausage, as well as many Italian, Middle Eastern and Balkan recipes. Use the dried leaf in pickling blends, salads, over cheese, and in stews and sauces. Sage leaf is quite strong in taste, so use it sparingly. Yet, in small pinches and dashes, the herbâ€s spicy, mint-like flavor can elevate any savory dish. Fortunately, the dried leaves also retain almost all of their essential oils, making the flakes just as effective as fresh sage. The herb pairs nicely with onion and garlic â€" a common blend in stuffing â€" and itâ€s great with other leafy herbs like rosemary, thyme and marjoram. Use the dried leaf for: Sauces and Stews â€" Sage provides a dash of earthiness to long-simmering stews, soups and sauces. It pairs nicely in tomato-based sauces like marinara. Pickling â€" In pickling spice blends, sage leaf helps to balance the strong flavor of vinegar. Salads â€" Sage works wonders in creamy salads. Try it in potato salad or macaroni salad.
