origin: morocco
   

A powerful and versatile herb that's particularly good when dried. Thyme is an important herb in many European cuisines, it's often used as a base flavour in stocks and soups in conjunction with bay leaves and garlic. Thyme is also an important part of spice blends ranging from the classic French herbes de provence to Jamaican jerk seasoning to Cajun mixes from the USA. The herb seems to work equally well in delicate herbal mixes and hot spicy blends.

uses: Add a pinch of thyme leaves to soups, stews or sauces. Crush and add salt, garlic and cracked black pepper for a simple seasoning for roast chicken or fish.
