Sage - Quick Reference
What is it?: Dried sage leaves with a strong savoury character suited to rich foods.
Flavour: Earthy, musky and slightly peppery with eucalyptus, pine and warm bitter notes.
Common uses: Stuffing, sausages, pork, poultry, squash, beans, browned butter and roast vegetables.
Pairs well with: Onion, thyme, rosemary, garlic, pork, chicken, squash and butter.
How to use: Use moderately and allow time to cook, as raw dried sage can taste harsh.
Compare with: More muscular and musky than thyme or marjoram.
Substitute: Thyme can replace it in lighter dishes, though without sage's distinctive warmth.
Storage: Keep sealed away from moisture and direct sunlight.
Good to know: Sage has a natural affinity with fat, which is why it works particularly well with pork, butter and rich stuffing mixtures.
