1 tsp dried sage would be equal to about 2 tsp fresh sage Use dried if it will be cooked with the dish for a longer time. Use fresh more towards the end of the cooking.
When using dry herbs versus fresh herbs, a good rule of thumb is to use 1 portion of dry herbs for every 3 portions of fresh herbs. So, one tsp of dried tarragon would be the equivalent to 3 tsps. of fresh tarragon.
It would be a minty fresh puppy
because fresh food means it is taking in water and dried food isn't but i would still perfure fresh food
You can use nearly the same ratio to substitute for most herbs. 3 to 1. You want one third the amount of dried as the amount of fresh that is called for. That would be approximately 1 teaspoon of dried to one tablespoon of fresh. However, it also depends on how fresh your dried herbs are. Fresher dried herbs will have a stronger flavor and you may be able to use less. Older dried herbs will have a weaker flavor and may require more.
For rosemary, the ratio is three to one, fresh chopped to dried. So if your recipe calls for 2 tsp. of dried rosemary and you would rather use fresh, you will need three times as much, or two tablespoons of fresh chopped rosemary leaves.

Usually about three times as much, but if a recipe calls for fresh, do your best to use fresh. Dried rosemary is one of those herbs that does not do very well dried. Fresh vs dried makes a huge difference. Also, depending on the recipe, if you're using dried rosemary, don't leave it in the food. Let it sit to soak the flavor in and then strain/take it out.
One tbsp of fresh coriander would be one teaspoon of dried and vice-versa. That is a three to one ratio. This formula works for all herbs. Just remember 1tbsp fresh = 1 tsp. dried. Packaged dried herbs are stronger than fresh herbs, but lose their potency as they age. If the container is new then use a bit more sparingly. Fresh herbs are the way to go to get the best results.
Yes! One can substitute 1/2 the recommended fresh herbs with dried herbs. One must be careful, though. If an herb is meant to be a garnish, of course its dried version would usually be less appealing.

If the parsley is to be used as a garnish, I wouldn't substitute dried.
