Organic Greek Sage. By EnVios 50g / 1.76 oz

I use a lot of sage in cooking and baking and this is an excellent addition to herbal and fruit teas. The loose leaves are very fresh and pungent. The flavor in baked goods is such that I need used only half the amount I usually do. I prefer organic ingredients and this is sourced from Greece and the quality is superior.

I steep this 3 to 4 minutes in boiling water and then add a little blueberry honey. I really like the flavor and enjoy it as my nighttime relaxing drink. The reseable bag is easy to use and keeps it fresh.

In my opinion, this is best suited for tea and not for other culinary uses, because it contains a lot of hard stems. You can crush it in your hand to pick out the sticks so that you can use the crushed leaves in poultry stuffing or as part of a rub. As you can see, there are both green leaves and brown leaves. I suspect that is because of the air drying that means they are not uniformly dehydrated. Or perhaps some less than perfect leaves got in there. At this low price point, it's not a big issue. Actually, this is a fantastic value for organic Greek sage. Some of the finest Mediterranean herbs are grown in Greece.
