savory

Savory is an aromatic plant highly appreciated for its flavor and scent, which lends itself perfectly to transforming second courses particularly based on fish and meat and, secondarily, also on vegetables. In the past, savory was used as an aphrodisiac and was also much loved by the famous French monarch Louis XIV, the Sun King. In our country, savory is most widespread in the central-northern regions, where it grows and is cultivated - as indeed - even spontaneously, appearing as a small shrub about thirty centimeters high, with characteristic white flowers with light shades of pink.
