Sage is a fresh herb used as a spice in cooking. It weighs only 0.1, so it is easy to carry. On its own it is barely food at all.
As a spice, it fits into many savoury dishes. It goes into soups, stews, stir fries, pasta, omelettes, bread, burgers, hot dogs and sandwiches. A spice does not count toward the dish's ingredient limit.
Fresh Sage stays good for 6 days and rots by day 10. It can be dried to keep it for good. Sage is grown on farms from Sage seeds and turns up now and then in kitchen fridges. The best occupations for herbs are the Fishing Guide and the Park Ranger. Each starts with the same Foraging skill.
Eating
Eating fresh Sage lowers hunger by only 1. It holds almost no calories and no nutrients. It is not worth eating on its own.
The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.

Cooking
Sage adds 1 to each dish it goes into. It works in Omelette, Stir Fry, Soup, Stew, Bread, Toast, Burger, Hot Dog, Sandwich and Pasta. As a spice, it never takes up an ingredient slot.
The Dry Sage recipe turns fresh Sage into Sage (Dried). The dried herb keeps for good and fits most of the same dishes.
These dishes take the Sage as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.

Farming
Sage grows from Sage seeds. A plant takes about 30 days to grow and gives 4 to 6 sprigs at harvest. The sowing season runs from February to April, and March is the best month to plant. Sage planted from July through December does poorly.

Storage
Fresh Sage stays fresh for 6 days and is fully rotten by day 10. A fridge slows both counts down. For long keeping, drying it is the better choice.
Locations
Sage is a rare find as loot. Fridges in restaurant and fancy restaurant kitchens hold it now and then. Home fridges turn it up less often. A farm plot is the reliable way to get a steady supply.
