 Sage
has one of the richest and most distinctive flavors of all the herbs.
Albanian sage has a rich flavor unknown to buyers of the California sage
normally sold in supermarkets. Sage is traditionally used for poultry
stuffing and breakfast sausages, but its rich strength lends itself well
to many dishes, such as beef roasts, pork chops and game dishes like
venison, duck and goose. Sage has become much more popular in recent
years, as it is excellent in a great variety of dishes.
