In Greece, sage has been traditionally used more as a herbal remedy and less as food seasoning, but its bold taste is perfect for rich meats and buttery sauces. As with most herbs, the dry climate, the high altitudes and abundance of sunshine in Greece enhance the fragrance and flavor. Greek sage is beautifully aromatic and can be used either in cooking or as a herbal infusion.
