ROSEMARY DRIED

* RESEALABLE BAG *

COMPOSITION : ROSEMARY DRIED.

HISTORY :

This shrub from the warmer parts of the world avoids humidity and prefers sun and limestone soil. The current production is considerable, as cosmetics are fond of its essential oil. Its very pleasant scent was soon spotted by the perfume industry, mainly for men's perfumes. In cooking, rosemary is one of the ingredients that have built the reputation of Mediterranean cuisine.

PROPERTIES :

Rosemary is said to have beneficial effects on the proper functioning of the intellect and to boost memory. If you are not in good shape, add it to your menu regularly. It reduces the risk of gout or kidney stones. If your blood circulation is not very good or if you suffer from rheumatism, take some.

COOKING :

Rosemary has a complex flavour, both strong and round due to its bitterness and freshness. A plant with so much character should therefore not be used in combination with dishes that also have a very distinctive flavour. White meats are best served with rosemary. Once you have tamed it, try it in desserts with cocoa or fruit. A simple toasted garlic spread with olive oil and rosemary will complement your tapas or a goat cheese and sausage skewer. It always takes a nice turn when cooked with garlic. Rosemary is divine with lamb or braised beef.
