African Pepper Sauce from the maker Safia Rasheed of Your Bountiful Harvest
“Our African Pepper Sauce was made to be versatile. Meaning you can use it as a sauce, condiment, dip, or marinade. One of our favorite ways to use the African Pepper Sauce is to cook it with eggplant or beans such as black-eyed peas It makes a delicious main dish. Enjoy discovering the multiple uses of this wonderful sauce. Please enjoy!”
Fresh Sage.
Whether you want to throw this in your stuffing, dressing, brown butter pasta , homemade sausage, or tea… garden sage is both lovely from a culinary standpoint or medicinally.
And while it’s not the traditionally used white sage, you can use it to smudge with as well. Check out this small blurb from Grove and Grotto.
“wondered if it’s okay to use culinary Sage—the kind that goes in turkey stuffing and breakfast sausage—for smudging. The answer is yes! Common Sage is a close relative of White Sage, and has many of the same beneficial properties as its superstar cousin, White Sage. Common Sage originates in Europe, and its medicinal and folkloric uses date back to the Middle Ages. For those involved in the European traditions of Witchcraft, it may make more sense to smudge with Common Sage than one of the North American varieties.

Not everyone agrees that the smell of burning Common Sage is pleasant. A little goes a long way. Also, the herb must be quite dry to smolder effectively. If burning Sage doesn't work for you, remember that you can still use the plant to cleanse and bless your space. Add the essential oil to sprays and washes, or put the leaves in sachets, witch bottles, or mojo bags.”
