There are many different types of thyme, although most garden (and cooking) thyme is Thymus vulgaris. This thyme is a small perennial shrub that is stiff and bushy in appearance with thin erect stalks growing to about 30cm (12 inches) in height and covered in pairs of small, elliptical gray-green leaves, which are 5-10mm in length (up to 0.33 inches). Thyme herb has pinkish-white, lipped flowers that are loved by bees and other garden insects. Thyme is almost dehydrated when ready to be picked, concentrating the flavours in its small leaves. Like other herbs, thyme is dried in warm shade, then its leaves are rubbed off. Thyme has a classic aroma that is pungent, warming and agreeable with hints of spiciness - maybe cloves. Thyme's taste is also pungent and warming with a mouth-freshening sharpness copming from its primary volatile oil, thymol. For more information on thyme, try Wikipedia.


Thyme is a traditional herb for many blends ranging from bouquet garni and mixed herbs through to zaatar. Thyme is also used in pates and terrines, burgers through to chicken rubbed with thyme or in a classic coq au vin. Thyme complements green beans, carrots and tomatoes, being delicious sprinkled over tomato salads. Other classic dishes with thyme are cassoulet from France and gumbo from Louisiana.
