What else can I use rosemary in?

Question

At the moment my only use for it is to season baked fish.

Answer 1

chicken, pork, roasted potatoes, and my favorite:

FOCACCIA BREAD

One package active dry yeast
Two cups warm water (105-110 degrees)
9 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Five cups all-purpose flour
One tablespoon kosher salt
Three tablespoons plus one teaspoon chopped rosemary

Combine the yeast, water and four tablespoons of the oil in a bowl and rest for five minutes. Mix the flour, half of the rosemary and the salt in a bowl. Then mix in the water and knead the dough for ten minutes. Brush a large stainless steel bowl with olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning it once to coat it evenly, cover with a cloth and rest for an hour and a half. Now you must decide how you wish to shape the bread. You can spread the dough into a 12 X 18 pan for a thinner loaf. I use a 10 X 13 pan that is two inches deep for a thicker loaf. Oil the pan, spread out the dough and rest for one more hour. With your hands spread, using your fingers, poke holes across the top of the dough. Drizzle the remaining olive oil, rosemary, and a little more salt on the top. Place it into a preheated 400 degree oven for approximately 25 minutes. Keep an eye on it, (especially to ensure the bottom is not burning), and adjust the heat if need be. Ovens can vary a great deal. When finished, dip pieces of the bread in extra-virgin olive oil seasoned with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

There's a lot of recipes out there that include rosemary. Here's one:

Rosemary Walnuts

2 cups shelled whole walnuts
2-1/2 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons crumbled dried rosemary
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place walnuts in a single layer in a
shallow pan. Mix together remaining ingredients and pour over walnuts.
Roast in oven about 10 minutes, until browned, shaking occasionally.
Yield: 6 servings

Answer 3

Rosemary is indispensable in roasted potatoes.

Chop new or young Yukon Gold potatoes into large-bite sized pieces. Add a GENEROUS amount of rosemary, some coarse salt and fresh cracked pepper, and maybe a little thyme and cumin, and then drizzle virgin olive oil over it all and mix with your hands until the potatoes are well coated.

Roast them in a medium hot oven (425-450 degrees) until crispy--maybe 35-40 minutes.

Yumm.

Answer 5

Lamb and Rosemary is a very traditional combination. You can either lay the sprigs around the joint of meat in the roasting dish or place them on top of the joint.

Along the roasting lines, some people like to put sprigs of Rosemary with their roast potatoes. Just roast them as normal but put the sprigs in the roasting tray.

Answer 6

Marinate chicken breast in olive oil, rosemary, and garlic for 24 hours, then grill the chicken breast then bake it till cooked thoroughly. Also you could add it to your olive oil for a bit of extra delicious flavor in anything you add your oil to (ex. salads, anything you may pan sear, you can also dip warm garlic bread in the oil) You can chop it up real fine and sprinkle it on your pizza. Marinate pork in it. Rosemary is a wonderful herb when known how to use it properly.

Answer 7

Rosemary is such a versatile herb. Lovely with lamb, snip into lamb mince with garlic, grated lemon jest and juice, black pepper and salt for really tasty lamb kebabs or meatballs. Sprinkle over potatoes whilst roasting. You can flavour ice-cream with it, but don't use too much, and if you pour boiling water on a few fresh 'branches' of leaves and let it go cold it'll soothe sunburn and makes a lovely rinse for your hair, adds shine.

Answer 8

Use rosemary twigs when making up a smoke-mix for chicken, pork or fish.
Get a metal pan, cover the base in foil, make up equal parts tea-leaves, brown sugar and rice to cover bottom of pan. add rosemary and or thyme. Cover this layer in foil. Add fish, chicken, pork etc portions and subject to high heat with lid on for 10-15 min depending on size/thickness. A good way for hot smoked mackerel or salmon!
Try adding it to the cream/milk mix with vanilla pod when you're boiling it up to add to egg yolks and sugar to make ice-cream. Also works well with lavender. Remember to sieve out before stirring into the yolk/sugar mix!
