Origin: a Latin derivative
meaning "Gift of the Earth."
Rosemary is an aromatic, evergreen shrub whose leaves are frequently used to flavor foods such as stuffings, pork, roast lamb, chicken, and turkey.
Essential oils are very potent compared to dry seasonings, spices, or other flavoring agents, so even the tiniest amount can add a serious blast of flavor to your dish. When using Rosemary in cooking, it is best to use the toothpick method – dip the tip of a clean toothpick into the essential oil bottle and stir the toothpick into your ingredients. After you’ve stirred the toothpick around in the dish, do a taste test to see if additional oil should be added.
Internal use: Use 1-3 drops to flavor food or beverages.
Keep out of reach of children. If pregnant or under a doctor’s care, consult a physician before using. Read the label before ingesting. Avoid contact with eyes and mucosa.
