It is traditionally used to season beans, soups, casseroles, meat dishes, stuffings and roasted vegetables, and has long been regarded as one of the classic herbs of European cooking. The leaves can be used fresh or dried, retaining much of their flavour after harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditionally, Winter Savory has also been used in herbal medicine to support digestive comfort and general wellbeing.
