Ready In: 15 mins
Serves: 10
Yields: 1 cup
Ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup extra virgin olive oil, as needed for 1/2 inch depth
- 1 cup whole medium-sized fresh sage leaf (see Tip)
- 1 dash salt
Directions
- Heat the oil in a small saucepan or skillet over medium-high heat.
- When the oil is hot so that drops of water sizzle when sprinkled into the oil, add the sage leaves. Fry for about 15 seconds, turning occasionally with a slotted spoon or tongs. (Don't let the leaves brown, or they’ll become bitter.).
- Transfer the leaves onto a paper towel-lined plate. The leaves will become crisp as they cool. Sprinkle lightly with fine-textured salt.
- **The fried sage will keep for up to 2 days in a tightly closed container at room temperature.
