Dried Summer Savory

Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark, dry place. Properly stored, dried herbs can last for years, but their flavor will gradually diminish.

Dried herbs are more concentrated than fresh; use about one-third the amount of dried savory compared to fresh.

Add dried savory earlier in the cooking process than fresh herbs to allow its flavor to fully develop.

It pairs wonderfully with legumes, particularly beans. Try it in bean soups and stews.

Beans (especially lima beans and green beans)

Poultry

Pork

Stuffings

Sausages

Potatoes

Tomatoes

Lentils

Using too much: its strong flavor can easily overpower other ingredients.

Confusing it with winter savory: winter savory has a more robust, pine-like flavor.
