savory, n.|ˈseɪvərɪ|
Forms: [1 sæþerie], 4–6 saverey, 5 savereye, saferay, savry, 5–6 saveray, 6–7 savery(e, saverie, savorie, 7 savourie, 7–9 savoury, 7– savory.
[Ultimately from L. saturēia; the form-history is uncertain.
On the one hand the ME. saverey might descend (with substitution of v for ð) from OE. sæðerie, a. early OF. *saðereie (later sarrie, whence the dim. sarriette surviving in mod.Fr.) = Pr. sadreia (whence 16th c. Fr. dial. sadriege, Sp. ajedrea, and perh. by metathesis the synon. sagerida):—L. saturēiam. On the other hand, Heresbach (De Re Rustica, 1570) cites an It. savoreggia and F. savoreie, and the latter appears in Cotgr. 1611 as savorée. The existence of these forms suggests that the ME. saverey may be an adoption of an unrecorded OF. form which had the v either as a phonetic development in hiatus (cf. F. pouvoir for early OF. pooir) or through the influence of saveur savour.
Independent adoption of the Latin word appears in OE. satureᵹe, ME. satureie, MHG. saterje (G. saturei), It. satureja, corruptly santoreggia, Pg. saturagem.]
1. Any plant of the genus Satureia (N.O. Labiatæ), esp. the annual herb Satureia hortensis (garden, summer savory), or the perennial S. montana (mountain or winter savory), natives of the south of Europe, cultivated for use as flavouring ingredients in cooking.
