Burma Spice Summer Savory | Seasonal Herb | Perfect for Replacing Salt and Pepper in Fish Dishes 16 oz.

In the Eastern Mediterranean, summer savory is a favorite herb, revered for its peppery, herbal flavor and sweet pine aroma. Popular in Romanian cuisine, the herb comes from the mint family, and is often compared to thyme and marjoram. Yet, summer savory has a taste of its own – herbal and minty with a tinge of peppery heat. The spice pairs well with cumin, basil, bay leaf and oregano, and it can liven up nearly any savory dish, from stews and chowders, to roasted veggies. Dried summer savory looks like rosemary, with green leaves and sprigs, and it’s used all over the world. In Atlantic Canada, summer savory is widely used as a substitute for sage. You’ll find it in stuffing recipes, with pork, and in sauces there. And in the Mediterranean, summer savory is found in numerous spice blends, as well as in savory soups, sauces and herbal rubs. A few common uses for summer savory include: Chowders and Stews – The burst of flavor the herb provides helps to balance robust stews and soups.
