What the AI looks for in Rosemary

Form: Whole needles, crushed or ground just before use Whole needles stay pungent, while pre-ground rosemary fades quickly.
Color and smell: Gray-green needles with a strong pine-camphor smell Brown, odorless needles are old.
Texture in cooking: Crush or chop dried needles before adding them to quick dishes Whole dried needles stay hard and splintery unless they are braised for a long time.

Brands that matter

Simply Organic: Organic whole leaf in glass jars.
Frontier Co-op: Good bulk whole and ground options.
McCormick: Widely available.

What to avoid

Ground rosemary bought in large amounts
Jars with a lot of stem pieces
