Sage recipes

Light, pillow-soft ricotta gnocchi flecked with fresh sage and tossed in classic brown butter — a far easier alternative to potato gnocchi that comes together in under 30 minutes. The ricotta keeps the dough delicate and tender, while the sage threads through both the dumpling and the sauce for a perfectly unified dish.

A whole roasted chicken rubbed all over with a sage and garlic butter pushed under the skin emerges from the oven with the crispiest golden skin imaginable and incredibly juicy, flavour-soaked meat underneath. Sage is the undisputed star, infusing every bite with its woodsy, camphor warmth. This is the kind of simple, impressive dinner that anchors a family meal.
