About Spices, sage, ground
Sage is the soft, gray-green, earthy and slightly peppery herb with a savory depth that pairs famously with pork, poultry stuffing and brown-butter pasta. Robust enough to hold its flavor through cooking, it's a defining note of autumn and holiday cooking.
Used in small amounts it adds little in calories, but sage is rich in antioxidant compounds and carries vitamin K and the essential oils behind both its flavor and its long history in traditional medicine. Its flavor is strong, so a little goes a long way.
A small amount of sage brings a warm, savory, slightly resinous depth to rich dishes — fried whole in butter, its leaves turn crisp and make a simple sauce feel special.
