Thyme has flavour/aroma that combines elements of allspice, clove, mint and pepper. Thyme is a key flavour component of bouquet Garni used in stocks and soups and French dishes like pot-au-feu to impart herbal richness. Thyme is well suited to lamb - rubbed over seasoned lamb legs, cutlets, short loin chops, racks or sprinkled over lamb or beef meatballs/burgers or meat sauces/ragus. Uses and Ideas: Add thyme to new potatoes and sauté in a little olive oil. Add thyme to a stuffing mixture for roast chicken. Sprinkle over foccacia with a drizzle of olive oil, top with crumbled goat cheese, diced chorizo, olives and grill. Use thyme when sautéing onions or button mushrooms. Add thyme to Mediterranean style white bean soups, gumbos or one pot dishes requiring a spike of flavour. Add thyme to red wine marinades for cheaper cuts of red meats like skirt steak, flank steak, rump or beef ribs.
