When I was a kid my Nana would make a cheeseball at
Christmas time that I always loved. Recently I decided I was going to make the
recipe myself. I added the ingredients to my shopping list which were your
common cheeseball ingredients, then I came to this… Summer Savory!
I had never heard of this spice in my life. I had never even
seen a recipe that required it. I did my homework online only to find out it
wasn’t a combination of spices but an actual spice called summer savory and
apparently there is a winter savory too.
After a little digging the only brand I could find was Spice
Islands that even mentioned having it. Then after 3 different grocery stores I found
it and yep it was Spice Island, but wow the price! I paid almost $6.00 for this
small bottle!
It’s probably a good thing I don’t have any other recipes
that require it. It’s a bit too pricey for me, but as my husband put it, you
only use 1/8 a teaspoon in the recipe so it should last awhile.
Have you ever used it in a recipe?
