Both summer and winter savories are used in cooking.  The summer has a peppery thyme flavor and blends well with most flavors, helping to bring them together.  Its popular in teas, herb butters, soups,  shell beans, lentils, eggs, cabbage, squash, liver, and fish.  Winter savory has a more piny taste and is used with strong game meats.  German cooking is famous for their savory and beans.  Savory relieves gas, stimulates healthy digestion, soothes chest infections and savory essential oil has strong antibacterial and antifungal properties.  This is another herb that is both used as a culinary herb and as a healer.  The herb Lady
