Organic Rosemary Powder

Organic rosemary powder is made from dried rosemary leaves that have been ground into a fine powder. Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is an herb native to the Mediterranean region, known for its strong, pine-like aroma and flavor. The organic designation means it was grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.

Rosemary powder is primarily used as a flavoring agent in a wide variety of foods, especially savory dishes. Manufacturers add it to salad dressings, marinades, spice blends, and baked goods to impart its distinct herbal taste. Its strong flavor means it's often used in small quantities to enhance other ingredients.

Rosemary powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of various antioxidants and compounds that have been studied for potential health benefits, such as anti-inflammatory properties. JECFA has evaluated rosemary extract and found it safe for consumption. While generally considered safe, excessive intake of any concentrated herb could potentially cause digestive upset in sensitive individuals.
