Organic Sicilian Sage Sprigs – 0.88 oz

Precisely to highlight the plant’s beneficial and healthful properties. Sage Sprigs are used in cooking, fresh or dried, to flavor foods and facilitate digestion. They are commonly used to season pasta and especially gnocchi with butter. But also to prepare sauces, roasted and stewed meats, fish, legumes, and aromatic oils and vinegars.

It offers a good response against water retention, edema, rheumatism, and migraines, and is also indicated in gingivitis and abscesses.
