We enjoy sage from the garden all year long. We’ve had great success freezing fresh sage leaves; wash, let dry completely and freeze in Zip Lock bags. Remove from the freezer just before using and proceed with whatever recipe you are making.
Sage Butter
Sage marries well with Pork Chops and a Sharp Cheddar Cheese Polenta. For a lighter meal, serve sage butter with Halibut and a Salad. Buttery and rich, packed full of flavor, Sage Butter is 0 Carbs.
Ingredients
- ½ cup salted butter
- 2 TBSP (4 gr) fresh sage
- 1 TBSP (2 gr) fresh parsley
- ¼ tsp. Pepper
Instructions
- Mash ½ cup butter, sage, parsley, and pepper. Blend until smooth. Transfer to plastic wrap and form into a log, wrap tightly and refrigerate until using.
- This can easily be made in smaller portions or freeze smaller portions for another time.
- When ready to use slice a round of sage butter and place on top of hot grilled chops or fish.
