Sage, like many other herbs, originates from the mint family. It comes from an evergreen shrub native to Albania that is now widely grown in the United States. It has long grayish green leaves that take on a cottony velvet-like texture when rubbed.
To create rubbed sage, the sage is lightly ground then passed quickly through a coarse sieve. Sage has a fragrant aroma and an astringent but warm flavor. It is a wonderful enhancer for seafood, vegetables, cornbreads, muffins, and savory breads.
This herb is musky, astringent, and warm with a fragrant aroma and pairs well with caraway, ginger, marjoram, and paprika.
Season poultry, seafood, vegetables, and savory breads like cornbread. When substituting rubbed sage for crumbled, use half as much.
For 3 T of mix: Blend 1 T rubbed sage with 2 t dried thyme, 1 1/2 t dried marjoram, 1 t dried ground rosemary, and 3/4 t ground nutmeg and pepper
