Rosemary - Spray Free
Rosemary is from Twin River Farms. Rosemary is used as a seasoning in a variety of dishes, such as soups, casseroles, salads, and stews. Use rosemary with chicken and other poultry, game, lamb, pork, steaks, and fish, especially oily fish. Rosemary can be used with the needles removed and minced or as whole sprigs, to infuse flavor into a larger dish like a stew or roast. To strip the rosemary leaves from the stem, pull the needles in the opposite direction from which they grow and they should easily slide off the stalk.
