looking for an herb

by moonbird1 @, Saturday, December 19, 2015, 09:52 (3979 days ago)

I am looking for some sage (salvia, in Spanish) or poultry seasoning for my turkey dressing. Has anyone seen it around or would sell/give me a little? Thanks!

For all intents and purposes, sage is not available in this country. Once, near Ajijic, we saw it growing in a planter, and were shocked.

One year, I brought down my own leaves, frozen. Now, I use a combination of fresh rosemary, and last week found fresh thyme at comercial, and used that, along with a bunch of fresh parsley and the rosemary. Actually like it better than any dried herbs!

Herbs in the Mercado or another store...here you go

There is a store on Benito Juarez (right side heading downtown) just before Ejido street that sells a large variety of herbs. If they don't have salvia I would try asking at one of the stalls in center of the mercado. If they don't have it they might know where you can find it. They serve a pasta with salvia at La Terracita, so I would think that it is available somewhere in Zihuatanejo.

The hydroelectricity in Canada is better than in Zihua. Or so I've been told.:snicker: However, the corn beef hash is good, especially the vegetarian version.;-)
