Instructions
Option 1 (Best Matching Flavor) - Marjoram
Use dried marjoram in an equal 1:1 ratio to replace ground sage, adding more oregano as needed to taste.
Option 2 (Readily Available Familiar Flavor) - Oregano
Since dried oregano has a stronger flavor than ground sage, start with ¾ teaspoon to substitute for 1 teaspoon of ground sage in any recipe.
Option 3 (Includes Sage As An Ingredient) - Poultry Seasoning
Use poultry seasoning in an equal 1:1 ratio for replacing ground sage called for in any recipe.
