Summer savory is widely renowned as a culinary herb with a smoother flavor than Winter Savory and similar to marjoram, but unique to itself. Originally introduced to England from the Mediterranean, it quickly took its place along with thyme, marjoram, and basil. Indeed, it was one of the herbs that Charlemagne specifically ordered planted in his own royal garden. There are two major types of savory in common cultivation, winter and summer savory. Summer savory is lighter in flavor, but still has the characteristic minty-peppery flavor that is particular to the species. It has been used medicinally as well as for cooking. According to ancient Greek lore, Pliny the Elder gave it the name Satureja, which is a derivative of the word satyr. This was because satyrs were thought to have lived in fields of savory; this also implies that the herb itself was why the satyrs were so passionate according to the Greeks. Whether or not it’s true, there’s no doubt that summer savory has earned its place in the culinary annals. It is often used to flavor spring vegetables, potatoes, and cheeses. It is a primary ingredient in the French herbs Provencal.

Summer savory can add a touch of peppery spice to recipes and is a prime ingredient in many herbal mixtures used to marinate meat.

Magically, Savory Summer is ruled by Mercury and Air. An excellent herb for all types of communication improvements and also for improving psychic ability!
