In ancient Greece they believed that sage improved fertility and women used to drink it when their husbands returned from battle.

Sage has a spicy taste and is used to season dishes based mainly on dark meat like pork, venison, beef and sausages but we can also use it on pies, soups, poultry, fish and pasta. It can be combined magnificently with rosemary and to give a different aroma to olive oil and vinegar. We need to be careful when using it, since because of its strong taste it’s easy for it to become overbearing in our dish. Finally sage can be used to make excellent beverages especially when combined with lemon balm, mint or fruits.
