Salvia rosmarinus
Fragrant leaves flavor meats, poultry and potatoes.
Rosemary is an essential ingredient for holiday turkeys, but it adds wonderful flavor to meats, other poultry and vegetables too. It also makes a good addition to potpourris. Start seed early indoors. Plants tolerate light frost; set outside early. Perennial. Zones 7-10.
- Clip leaves or stem tips as needed. Rosemary may be used dry or fresh.
- If you are using rosemary fresh, pick it early in the morning for highest oil content.
- For drying or freezing, harvest leaves that have their maximum oil content, just before flowering.
- Harvest leaves, tips and flowers. Chop or crumble leaves before using.
- To dry, cut whole stems on a dry morning. Tie stems loosely together in small bunches and hang in a dry, airy location out of the sun. Rosemary may also be dried on a cheesecloth or a window screen in a dry, shady location. Do not use heat to dry rosemary as the fragrant oils can be volatile. When thoroughly dry, store in a tightly sealed glass jar in a dry, dark location.
- Rosemary may also be frozen dry or in an ice cube tray in water or olive oil.
