Grind the sage, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper and lemon zest to a paste.
This herb paste can be eaten with gnocchi, pasta and rice. It is also nice to rub grilled meat or roast meat with it. Baked potatoes are also very tasty with it.
Rosemary or similar herbs can also be used for the paste. Or a mixture of sage and rosemary, for example.
If a side dish (gnocchi, pasta ) is eaten as the only main course, the amount should be doubled for 4 people.
If there is a residue, the paste is poured into a screw-top jar and stored in the refrigerator. The sage seasoning paste can also be used as a basis for sauces and dressings.
