Cooking with Herbs & Spices
ROSEMARY: DENDROLIVANO
Rosemary enhances the flavour of many types of meat, including lamb, pork, chicken and rabbit. Simply place a few sprigs of fresh rosemary or sprinkle dried rosemary on top of the meat before roasting. Lamb can be flavoured by inserting chopped rosemary into small holes pierced into its skin.
Rosemary is a native of the Mediterranean but is commonly used in British cooking adding a zing to roast meats and vegetables. Rosemary is incredibly versatile and works particularly well when used in conjunction with tomatoes and garlic.

Rosemary can also be chopped and added to a marinade for Mediterranean-style meat and fish dishes. It also makes a delicious ingredient in stuffing, simply strip the leaves from the stem and finely chop them. Add them to your favourite stuffing mix or make your own.
