Savory is a versatile herb known for its robust, peppery flavor with hints of thyme and mint. It is commonly used in cooking to add depth and complexity to savory dishes such as stews, soups, sauces, and stuffing. Savory pairs well with meats like poultry, pork, and game, as well as with vegetables, beans, and lentils. Both fresh and dried savory leaves can be used, with dried savory offering a more concentrated flavor.

Growing Instructions

Starting your seeds

You can start Savory seeds indoors using a heat mat to encourage germination. Once the seedlings sprout and grow a few sets of leaves, move them outdoors. Keep the soil moist and provide 6–8 hours of sunlight daily. When direct sowing Savory seeds, plant them about 1/4 inch deep in well-drained soil, spacing them 8–10 inches apart to give them enough room to grow.

Harvesting your seeds

To harvest savory cut the stems, leaving about 4 to 6 inches of growth. Harvest the leaves before the plant flowers for the best flavor. Use scissors or shears to trim the savory, and avoid removing more than one-third of the plant at a time to ensure continued growth.
