Summer savory is a traditional popular herb in Atlantic Canada, where it is used in the same way sage is elsewhere.[1] It is the main flavoring in dressing for many fowl, mixed with ground pork and other basic ingredients to create a thick meat dressing known as cretonnade (cretonade) which may be eaten with turkey, goose and duck.[2] It also is used to make stews such as fricot, and in meat pies.[3] It is usually available year-round in local grocery stores in dried form and is used in varying proportions, sometimes added to recipes in large generous heaping spoonfuls (such as in cretonnade), and sometimes more subtly (as in beans, for which savory has a natural affinity).[4]

Summer savory is a characteristic ingredient of herbes de Provence.[5] It is also widely used as a seasoning for grilled meats and barbecues, as well as in stews and sauces.[6]

Summer savory is preferred over winter savory for use in sausages because of its sweeter, more delicate aroma. It plays an important role in Bulgarian cuisine, providing a strong flavor to a variety of dishes.[7] Instead of salt and pepper, a Bulgarian table will have three condiments: salt, red sweet pepper, and summer savory. When these are mixed it is called sharena sol (шарена сол 'speckled salt').

Summer savory, known as cimbru, is used in Romanian cuisine, especially in sarmale (stuffed cabbage or grape leaf rolls) and in mititei (grilled ground meat rolls).[8]

Medicine[edit]

The use of summer savory dates back to being used by the Romans for traditional medicinal remedies and it has since been used by many other cultures to treat symptoms such as cramps, stomach pains, nausea, indigestion, and more.[9][10][11]

Studies such as “In Vitro Antibacterial, Antifungal, and Antioxidant Activities of the Essential Oil and Methanol Extracts of Herbal Parts and Callus Cultures of Satureja Hortensis L.”  and “Antispasmodic and Anti-Diarrhoeal Effect of Satureja Hortensis L. Essential Oil.”, along with others, have proved that there is a relationship between the plant and its curing properties.[12][13]

These properties are due to the chemical composition and the presence of steroids, essential oils, flavonoids, and other components, which have anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, sedative, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties.[14][15]
