Thyme is a Mediterranean herb with dietary, medicinal, and ornamental uses. The aroma of thyme is pungent, warming, spicy and agreeable. Its flavour is similarly pungent and warming with a lingering, medicinal, mouth-freshening sharpness.
When cooking with thyme be sure to add it early in the process so the oils and flavour have time to be released. The aromatic flavour compliments many dishes and cuisines however she primarily finds herself making an appearance typically in French and Italian dishes. It’s also a primary herb in sauces of hot peppers and eggplants as well as being used in soups and stews.
Thyme and it’s medicinal use you ask? Well… Thyme is thought to have antibacterial, insecticidal, and possibly anti-fungal properties which means it can be used to treat a range of symptoms and complaints including diarrhea, stomach ache, arthritis, and sore throat.
If we’re being honest, thyme goes well with almost anything. Add it to a creamy lemon and thyme chicken dish or sprinkle some over a tray of roast potatoes!
