Rosemary means "dew of of the sea." The plant grows throughout the Mediterranean area. The Italians make the best use of it as a flavoring for meat and chicken, in vegetable dishes, sprinkled over steak and basted with butter over grilled fish. Rosemary with lamb is an old favorite. Rosemary is also good with eggs and cheese. To release the flavor in the leaves, crumble them in your hand just before adding to the dish. Combine INDIA TREE Rosemary with other herbs such as thyme and marjoram for a classic Herbes de Provence; mix it with olive oil and other herbs for a savory lamb marinade; mix into your favorite recipe for focaccia bread; sprinkle over a whole chicken before roasting; gather it up in a square of cheesecloth and steep it in lemonade for a refreshing summertime drink.
