Thyme De Provence, or ‘Summer Thyme’, is a popular perennial herb that is well known for its culinary, medicinal and ornamental uses. With its tiny, soft, grey-green leaves and small, pinkish flowers, Thyme de Provence is spicier than common thyme and is the preferred option in authentic French cuisine. In fact, it is the leading component in the famous Herbes de Provencedried-herb mix, as well as in the Bouquet garni – a bundle of string-tied herbs used to flavour soups and stews. Use it to make a bouquet garni to flavour stocks and casserole dishes, or pair with roasted chicken for a beautifully fragrant Sunday roast.
