Rosmary

Rosemary is an aromatic perennial plant belonging to the “lamiaceae” family.

The word rosemary comes from the Latin “ros” (dew) and “maris” (sea). Rosemary entered the kitchen through medicinal reasons. Rosemary is often etaen in Italy, where cooks are masters at using such strong flavours subtly. It is used to flavor roasts, potatoes, castagnaccio, stir-fried vegetables, bread, marinades buns and game.
