This aromatic plant is native to the Mediterranean region and thrives in well-drained soils, often found in gardens and wild areas across Europe and North America. Sage is characterized by its soft, gray-green leaves and distinct, earthy aroma, making it a popular herb in culinary and medicinal uses.
In culinary applications, sage is prized for its bold and slightly peppery flavor, often used in savory dishes, particularly with meats, stuffing, and sauces. Its leaves can be used fresh or dried, adding a warm depth to various recipes. In herbal medicine, sage has been traditionally associated with digestive support and promoting cognitive function, often enjoyed as a cooling, soothing tea.*
