Love Grows where Rosemary Goes

Rosemary is associated with remembrance, memory, and fidelity. In Roman times, students wore springs of rosemary in their hair so that their memories would be better. In Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Ophelia says ‘There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance, pray you love, remember.’ Rosemary was entwined into the bride’s head wreath to encourage couples to remember their wedding vows. It was added to wine and used to toast the bride’s special wishes. Someone could be made to fall in love merely by being tapped on the finger with a sprig of rosemary.

With Valentine’s Day a few short weeks away, we are going to share some preservation techniques for using this popular and plentiful herb through a review of some simple and delicious rosemary flavored dishes.
