Sage, also known as garden sage, is a fragrant herb with a slightly peppery and earthy flavor. Its velvety, grey-green leaves have an oblong shape and a distinctive aroma. Dried sage leaves are often crumbled or ground into a powder. Fresh sage offers a more subtle flavor than dried sage, which is often preferred in cooking. Explore the culinary versatility of sage, a staple in both savory and sweet dishes, appreciated for its unique flavor profile.

Fresh sage is best stored in the refrigerator. Wrap the leaves loosely in a slightly damp paper towel and place them in a plastic bag or airtight container. This will help maintain their moisture and prevent them from drying out too quickly. Dried sage should be kept in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat, to preserve its flavor and aroma for up to a year. You can also freeze fresh sage leaves by chopping them and placing them in ice cube trays filled with water or olive oil.
