Savory tea: 2 teaspoons of savory are poured into 1/4 l of boiling water, infused for 10 minutes, filtered and drunk warm. When used against a cough, it is recommended to sweeten with honey. In addition to other remedies, baths with savory can also be recommended for children with whooping cough and asthmatics. Follow the recommendations for the use of thyme for medicinal baths. In general, in very old herbalists, no distinction is made between thyme, oregano and savory.
Savory plays a prominent role in home cooking. Its taste is aromatic-pungent to bitter. It is advisable for them to season heavy foods such as fried potatoes with lard, beans, sausage, minced meat and "heavy roasts". Savory is also perfect for a peasant breakfast (fried potatoes with lard and eggs). Savory is allowed in the dietary kitchen, but it should not be overused. Together with basil, it can replace salt and pepper.
