About Rosemary

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is a beloved herb renowned for its distinctive botanical features and versatile properties. It boasts needle-like leaves that emit a rich, invigorating aroma when crushed or brushed against. Its woody stems bear small, delicate flowers in shades of blue, pink, or white, adding a touch of elegance to its lush greenery.

Rosemary has been treasured for centuries for its medicinal and culinary properties. It is rich in essential oils, antioxidants, and phytochemicals that make it fruitful for providing several health benefits. In traditional medicine, it has been used to alleviate digestive discomfort, boost cognitive function, and relieve muscle pain. In the culinary realm, Rosemary lends its robust flavor and aromatic depth to a wide range of dishes, from roasted meats and hearty soups to savory breads and fragrant oils. 

 

How to Use Rosemary

  • Tincture: After drying, Rosemary leaves and stems are finely chopped and then steeped in grain alcohol for 4 to 6 weeks, producing a potent tincture imbued with its essence.
  • Tea:  Infuse dried Rosemary leaves and flowers in hot water for approximately 10 minutes to extract their soothing properties into the infusion.
  • Salve: Create a gentle topical salve by combining Rosemary-infused oil with beeswax, ideal for external application.
  • Vinegar Infusion: Immerse dried rosemary leaves and stems in apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar for a period of 2 to 4 weeks. Shake the concoction intermittently during the infusion period, and optionally add more vinegar, resulting in a nourishing rosemary vinegar infusion.
