Grabbing a stalk of rosemary, we so often pull off the leaves and then toss out the little hard stick that held them together.

However, that ‘stick’ contains just as much flavor as the delicate leaves, and while not perfect for placing in a marinade due to its chewy texture, it becomes the perfect aromatic cooking utensil when used correctly – a skewer.

Use the sturdiest ones you can find, remove leaves, and soak them in water for 10 minutes to ensure they don’t burn.
