Thyme is one of the oldest and most honoured of herbs. It originated in the Mediterranean, and its virtues were written about by many of our herbal forefathers like Culpeper and Pliny.
Today, Thyme can now be found worldwide as an aromatic herb in many cuisines. It's best to add it at the start of cooking time so the flavour will slowly infuse into the dish. Pair it with meat, tomatoes, and beans; add it to stews, omelets, lamb & poultry dishes. One of our family favourites is lemon-thyme chicken - place a LOT of Thyme under the skin of roasting a chicken with generous amounts of lemon zest.
