This is a great basic recipe which is much like the one I have used for years.  My recipe does NOT include rosemary in the basic recipe, as I find it is a strong taste. I prefer parsley. I always keep a supply of the basic recipe in my freezer along with some alternative- one of which has FINELY minced rosemary, preferably fresh processed. My family does not like larger pieces of rosemary, which they call "sticks".
