Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is a well-known Mediterranean shrub thanks to its culinary, aromatic, and medicinal uses. Rosemary has glands in its leaves containing essential oils that give it a fragrant, fresh, and strong aroma, especially when the leaves are crushed.
Uses of rosemary:
Medicinal: This plant has traditionally been used in folk medicine as a remedy, among others, for treating headaches. It has also been used to help reduce muscle discomfort and back pain, as well as poor circulation and skin lesions. It is also used as a hair stimulant and to help eliminate dandruff. Likewise, it is used to improve breathing during colds, flu, or sinusitis. Macerated with alcohol or oil, it is used to help relieve pain from blows and bruises.
Cooking: It is a traditional seasoning in Mediterranean cuisine. Its fragrance is strong and intense, so it is best to measure the amount carefully and use it in moderation to prevent its flavor from dominating the dish. Rosemary leaves, both fresh and dried, are used as spices to flavor meats and poultry, as well as to season soups, vegetable-based preparations, and sauces to accompany pasta. A sprig of fresh rosemary aromatizes oils and vinegars, adding a different and pleasant touch that pairs well with some dishes and salads.
Perfumery: Due to its characteristic fragrance, it is used in perfumery. "Hungary water" has rosemary as its main component. Rosemary is also used to scent bath water.
