How to Use the Herb Thyme
Thyme is a team player, but it gets bossy with certain foods. It adores fatty meats like lamb, pork, and duck. The oil in the meat softens the thyme’s punchy, almost minty earthiness.
It also loves root vegetables. Toss some thyme sprigs with carrots, parsnips, or potatoes before roasting. They’ll come out smelling like a cozy sweater in autumn. And don’t forget mushrooms—thyme and mushrooms are basically culinary soulmates. Sauté them together with butter and garlic, and you’ll understand.
