What to Do With Sage Flowers?

Cooking

• Add crushed sage flowers and leaves to your favorite homemade salsas, spaghetti dishes, pizza recipes and salads. Mix 2 tbsp. of sage into spaghetti sauce and mix well as the sauce simmers. Sprinkle extra sage on pizzas before baking. Blend the desired amount of sage into just about any meal. Combining sage with rosemary, dill, parsley and other herbs creates custom flavors.

Sage Tea

• Use sage flowers to make sage tea. Grind the flowers and leaves with an herbal grinder or chop the flowers and leaves up into very small pieces. Fill tea bags with the mashed flowers and boil water. Place the bags in hot water for a few minutes. Combining sage tea with chamomile and other types of herbs creates different flavors. However, not everyone should drink sage tea. Check with your doctor if you're taking any medications.

Fragrant Sachets

• Place sage flowers and uncooked rice inside fragrant sachets. Fill the bags up until they are almost full, but not packed. Sew the top to keep the ingredients locked inside. Add other herbs to the mix or just stick with sage and rice. Give these sachets away as gives for birthdays or just because. If you don't know how to sew, buy cloth sachets with a drawstring that opens and closes and the top.

Aromatherapy

• Use sage flowers to make potent aromatherapy oil. People often use aromatherapy to help them relax or treat conditions such as hair loss, anxiety, insomnia or pain, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center. Take the flowers and leaves to an herbalist or aromatherapist to create the oil for you. Place a few dabs of oil on your neck and lay down to relax or take a bath. The aroma from the essential oil promotes healing when inhaled or massaged on the skin, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center. Do not take the oil by mouth.
