  2. Wipe pan with a kitchen towel and place back on stovetop. Add butter and melt. 
  3. Add Spice World Ready-to-Use Chopped Easy Onion and sage and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sage turns crisp and butter starts to brown. 
  4. Remove sage leaves from butter using a slotted spoon and reserve for later.
