How do I swap dried rosemary for fresh in recipes?

You can substitute dried rosemary for fresh using a standard conversion to retain balanced flavor. Because drying concentrates flavor, less is required; rehydrate briefly in warm liquid if you want a more herbaceous texture.

• Conversion: use 1/3 tablespoon dried for every 1 tablespoon fresh.
• Add early to braises, roasts, or sauces so heat can bloom the oils.
• Soak in warm water, stock, or oil for 5–10 minutes to soften leaves before using as a garnish.
