Nutritionally speaking, is there a difference between fresh vs. rubbed vs. ground? I mean is one type more nutritionally potent than the others? Thanks for sharing the information.
Hi H.S.R. 1986! That's a very interesting question! Unfortunately, it's one that would be very hard to answer based on limited data that is available. I can only speculate based on my experience and training. The motto "Fresh is Best" stands true with most fruits, vegetables, and herbs. With that, I can speculate that there will be slightly more nutritional value in fresh sage than dried (whether it is ground or rubbed). Any time we treat foods in any way whatsoever (dehydrate, cook in any way, freeze, can, bottle, etc) we lose some nutritional value. With some foods more than others, and with some methods more than others. Considering how much sage we would use at any one meal or serving, it's reasonable to believe that the amount lost in the drying process vs the amount we consume even in one day, would be very small, when compared with using fresh sage. Unless you plan on making a salad using fresh sage as the base (such as, instead of lettuce), I would think that the differences would be minuscule and not worth worrying over. It's probably more fruitful to be concerned with the nutritional value of foods that you eat in larger portions. I'd say to go ahead and use whichever form of sage you're led to use and don't worry beyond that. Again, fresh is usually best, so you may want to stay with fresh sage as much as you can. If you need to use a dried form at some time, it's not worth fretting over. Know that you'll still be getting some good value from it. I know this isn't quite the response you were hoping for, but it's the best I can do considering the limited data available. Thanks for watching and asking your question! I hope this helps in some way. Blessings to you and yours :)
