Rosemary has been grown for thousands of years, dating back to the Greeks and Romans in 500 B.C. Some records show that rosemary was even used in Ancient Egypt after dried sprigs of rosemary were found in Egyptian tombs from 3,000 B.C. It was cultivated by the Spanish in the 13th century and used as a condiment on Salted Meats. Legend has it that as the Virgin Mary fled from Egypt she sheltered next to a rosemary bush and when she threw her cape onto the bush, the white flowers turned blue, thus giving the herb the name “rose of Mary”.

Rosemary is fantastic on oven-roasted potatoes or in an herbal bouquet in any soup or stew. It is also delicious on homemade focaccia bread or in a simple syrup reduction to add to refreshing cocktails all year long.
