Preparation
 
Select whole, unblemished sage leaves with stems left on, for easy
handling.

Combine beer, flour, salt and pepper in small bowl until smooth.
Batter should have the consistency of cream soup. Let stand at room
temperature at least 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, beat the egg white until it is fairly stiff but not dry.
Fold into batter. Dip whole sage leaves in batter to coat both sides.

Deep-fry in hot oil or shortening until crisp and golden brown on both
sides. Drain on paper towels; serve.

Yield: 4 to 6 servings.

Enright says that Chef Willy Brand, of Toronto s George Brown College,
first tasted these when he worked in Switzerland, where the sage
leaves were popular at cocktail parties. She also says that these are
good served with selected cheeses, or with deep-fried wedges of
camembert or brie and a tomato dipping sauce.
