*Harvest and preparation of rosemary – For fresh use, harvest young, tender stems, but avoid taking off more than one-third of the plant at one time. Cut early in the morning, just after the dew has evaporated and before the sun is hot.   Place tender stems in a colander and rinse under cold running water.  Pat dry with paper towels.  Discard stems and mince needles with a very sharp knife.
