Rosemary stems are flavorful, but they’re woody, tough, and not pleasant to eat.
Like bay leaves, rosemary sprigs that are cooked with foods are typically removed before serving.
Instead of discarding the stems, you can also hang it up to dry and store it to use as a skewer for vegetables and meat that you want to barbecue. When you want to include rosemary right in your recipes, it’s best to use the individual needles rather than the full sprig.
