Rosemary

Description

An attractive ornamental plant, rosemary has been associated with love, friendship and remembrance in mythology and history. The needlelike leaves of this herb have a bold flavor described as piney and balsamic. Rosemary is a classic flavoring for roasted lamb, grilled chicken and stews, especially when blended with garlic. Often added to marinades, vinegar, oils and dressings. Few things recall Italy better than rosemary and olive oil focaccia. Found in herbes de provence and bouquet garni, rosemary doesn't lose any of its potent flavor or aroma during cooking.
