Younger leaves are bright green and fade to grey-green with age. Thyme's flavor counters its appearance with bold nuances of its essential oil, thymol.

Seasons/Availability
Thyme is available year-round.
Current Facts
Thyme is an aromatic and widely used culinary herb that also happens to be the main ingredient in bouquet garni and one of the principle ingredients in Herbs de Provence. Thyme thrives as a garden herb as it is a natural insect repellent. Only honey bees are attracted to its productive flowers. Beehives near thyme sources produce savory honey.
Applications
Thyme is used to season stocks, stews and soups. Thyme can be used as a stand alone herb or in savory combinations. Use to flavor marinades with sea salt, rosemary, lemon zest and olive oil. Thyme pairs well with seafood, red meat and poultry. Thyme releases its flavors slowly so it is favored in slow and long cooking application. Add to root vegetables and autumn fruits, or infuse in syrups and oils. To store, keep cool and dry until ready to use.
Ethnic/Cultural Info
Thyme is perhaps the single most used herb as an essential ingredient in cuisines across the globe, ranging from the Caribbean, Europe, North America, South and Central America the Mediterranean and beyond.
Geography/History
Thyme is a perennial herb and member of the mint family, Labiatae. There are more than 100 species of thyme. Common garden thyme is the most widely used for culinary purposes.

It grows wild in the hills of Greece and other western Mediterranean countries. Thyme is often grown with other savory herbs to be harvested together, specifically lavender, rosemary and savory.
