ROSEMARY

Rosemary is a very potent and powerful herb that is traditionally used with lamb and in Mediterranean  style dishes.
Although rosemary is the traditional partner for roast lamb ,  it also goes well with chicken , beef and is the shining star when used with pork .
Be prepared to experiment .
Rosemary has a potent pinewood aroma and a powerful bitter sweet flavour and is best used in moderation .
Rosemary sprigs freshly cut from the herb garden and placed inside chicken cavities before roasting work a treat.
Use freshly chopped sprigs or the dried leaves of rosemary in marinades or stuffings.
Add rosemary leaves to dressings for char grilled vegetables like egg plants , zucchini , and potatoes.
Best of all shred the sprigs and sprinkle over the base of pizzas and over focaccias brushed with oil ...
Mmmmmm.
