The Ingredient: Rosemary

We decided to ask our readers:  Which HERB would you like to see thrown in the crock?  Below are the results.

ROSEMARY: 2
CILANTRO: 2
OREGANO: 1
MINT: 1

Since there was a tie, I chose ROSEMARY.

Rosemary is one of my favorite scents and flavors!  I normally use rosemary when cooking poultry, however, many people use this herb with fish, beef and lamb dishes as well.  The pungent flavor will enhance any recipe.  According to my research, rosemary is good for boosting the immune system, increasing memory and improving circulation and digestion.

Looks like we can congratulate ourselves for picking this herb!
