{"product_id":"faskomilo-matso","title":"Sage Bunch – Salvia spp.","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSage Bunch – Salvia spp.\u003c\/strong\u003e is a botanical raw material available as whole dried aerial parts in bunches, with a strong, Mediterranean, camphoraceous, herbal character. At Spices Bazaar, the description is based on the product’s form and botanical identity, without turning traditional references into therapeutic promises. Natural variations in color, cut, and aromatic intensity are to be expected from one harvest to another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSage Bunch – identity and characteristics\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe botanical reference \u003cem\u003eSalvia spp.\u003c\/em\u003e helps distinguish this raw material from similar common names and different commercial forms. The product consists of whole dried aerial parts in bunches. Drying reduces moisture and naturally changes the color and texture. Smaller pieces or a little plant powder at the bottom of the package are to be expected, particularly with fragile leaves and flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAroma, flavor, and practical use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts profile is strong, Mediterranean, camphoraceous, and herbal. Sage holds an important place in Mediterranean cuisine. The bunch form preserves more of the plant’s visible natural structure and can be used for flavoring in keeping with the batch’s identity. The reference Salvia spp. avoids arbitrarily assigning a specific species. The quantity and contact time with other ingredients affect the final result. For professional or repeated preparations, it is useful to weigh the ingredients and keep notes so that a blend can be reproduced more consistently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat not to confuse it with\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe dried plant is not automatically equivalent to an essential oil, tincture, capsule, or standardized extract. The concentration of natural constituents may be entirely different. For this reason, do not copy dosages or claims from another form of the same plant. The label for the specific batch remains the primary reference for the part used and its intended use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality and proper handling\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA natural dried product does not need to have exactly the same color and size in every delivery. Harvest season, drying, cutting, and storage time affect its appearance. Use a dry spoon or tongs, do not return a wet product to the package, and avoid leaving the bag open near cooking steam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRelated product in the catalog\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor comparison, you can view \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/faskomilo-apoxiramena-fylla\"\u003eSage – Dried Leaves\u003c\/a\u003e. The related product is not a substitute for this one. A different cut, a different plant part, or even a related species may significantly change the aroma, use, and precautions. Always choose based on the full name, not appearance alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA little Spices Bazaar secret\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you keep many herbs in the same cupboard, retain the original label even when transferring them to jars. Note the full name and batch, and do not mix the remainder of an old delivery with a new one. This helps preserve traceability and lets you genuinely compare natural differences between batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStorage and precautions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore tightly sealed in a cool, dry, dark place, away from moisture, steam, and strong odors. High or prolonged internal use is not the same as ordinary culinary use. Some species contain thujone. Particular caution is required during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or in the event of a history of seizures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiscover more flavors, aromas, and stories from around the world.\u003c\/strong\u003e Follow Spices Bazaar on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/www.SpicesBazaar.gr\"\u003eFacebook\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@Aiodigoseyexias\"\u003eYouTube\u003c\/a\u003e for new arrivals, recommendations, and inspiration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Spices Bazaar","offers":[{"title":"50 g","offer_id":54895929721159,"sku":"SB-HER-40135-050","price":2.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 g","offer_id":54895929753927,"sku":"SB-HER-40135-100","price":3.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"500 g","offer_id":54895929786695,"sku":"SB-HER-40135-500","price":15.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000 g","offer_id":54895929819463,"sku":"SB-HER-40135-1K","price":30.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/spices-bazaar-2.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/faskomilo-matso","provider":"Spices Bazaar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
