Tips
1
Sage Savvy: Leftover sage will keep in the refrigerator up to 1 week. If you don’t plan to use it before then, mince the leaves, spoon into a small plastic bag, and freeze. Spoon out small amounts to use as you need it. The leaves will darken when they thaw but can be used in stews or soups where colour doesn’t matter so much.
