French Thyme

Let's hear it for fresh French thyme. We have been using Penseys' Fine Herbs in our nuked zucchini. The other night while havesting veggies, I snipped a few sprigs of the thyme and took the leaves off all but the smallest stems; and sprinkled it on the slices of zucchini along with salt and pepper. WOW!!! What a difference. Fantastic!

I have German and English Thyme in my herb garden and for the first time this year, I found French Thyme. I'm loving it. Anymore I throw the whole sprigs into the pot, the tiny leaves drop off during cooking and I just pull out the stems which always seem to be on top. I like the French Thyme on my sliced tomatoes too, it is nice with a little summer savory....nice break from the usual sweet basil. It goes well with the bolder tasters like the yellow lemon boy.

Took your advice Karen and threw some stems of both French and English Thyme into our pasta sauce tonight. Wonderful!

We like Greek thyme but it's a little hard to find. Distinctive flavor.

We have bought plants at the festival at the Greek Orthodox Church here but they have never survived very long.

I just love having my herb garden. Our next door neighbors can smell the odors when I am doing some serious trimming and they are outside in their garden. They have never used a fresh herb in their eighty plus years. I am so amazed. I had them over the other day to see my overgrown herbs. I could see the brain thoughts on their faces..."why are they eating those weeds?" LOL

I thought the difference between French time and English time was one hour......

We have French Thyme growing all over ther place. The kitchen staff has been heard to opine that the leaves being so small makes it a fiddly task to separate from the stems. Danged uppity kitchen staff!

No need, just toss in the springs.. As I said they are always on top somehow, sticking out as if to say, "here I am".
