Flavouring food with pure essence

re-post

If you 'stain' your fingers with the essence of a plant - in this case rosemary - and then.....get in touch with a piece of food like this orange,  the flavour is immediate and fresh. 

Lime scented geranium and cherries.....mint leaves and fresh figs......oregano and tiny tomatoes.... are others worth a try.

I just thought of a few more - it being November now:  (actually this is 'food chumming') - smooth peanut butter with sweet pickle slices on a toasted bagel;   plain yogurt with raw pumpkin seeds and dried cranberries;   an Ambrosia apple cored, peeled, chopped mixed with some mayonnaise and  unsalted cashews.
