A pinch, not a spoonful
Here the white sage from California is ground to a powder, leaf only and no stem, 5 oz to the bag. The bag describes the aroma as intense, sweet and bitter at the same time, and it asks you to use it with a light hand.
A pinch goes into pork and homemade sausage, into a pot of beans, into a butter sauce or the oil you fry in. Ground sage spreads through a dish faster than a whole leaf, so taste before you add the second pinch. The bag also lists tea and incense. For those two jobs our catalog keeps the whole leaf and the hand-tied bundles of the same plant.
In the YERBERO range, Salvia blanca molida is filed under S in the herbolario A–Z, next to Wereke.
