Usage: Thyme has a distinctive, potent flavor that develops as it cooks with other ingredients. It can be found in bouquet garni and herbs de Provence. Thyme is good in marinades, stuffings, vegetables, meat, poultry, stews and cheese dishes.
Info: A culinary and medicinal herb with red-brown stems, delicate leaves, and pink flowers. Ancient Greeks considered thyme as a source of courage - the Greek word for thyme, thumus, means courage. They also used it in their baths and their temples (as incense). And it was used for embalming by the ancient Egyptians. The spread of thyme throughout Europe was due to the Romans as they used it to purify their rooms. During the Middle Ages, thyme was put beneath pillows to aid sleep and ward off nightmares, given to knights and warriors as gifts, and placed in coffins for assurance to next life.
Thyme is a fragrant, small leafed culinary herb from the Lamiaceae mint family. It is frequently used in Mediterranean, Italian, and French cuisines. Although there are many varieties of thyme, the two most commonly used in the kitchen are common thyme and lemon thyme. Both types are aromatic and sweet. However, lemon thyme contains a bit more citrus flavor, hence its name.
Origin: Southwestern Europe and Northern Africa
