[edit] About Thyme
Thyme is an herb often used for both culinary and medicinal uses. It is used to flavor meats, soups, and stews.
Best used fresh, the plant is a perennial and grows easily. When using, strip the tiny leaves from the stems. Whole stems can be included in soups, but should be removed before serving.
Thyme is relatively mild, has nice floral notes, and does not get bitter in high quantities or with cooking like some herbs.
Try it with lean cuts of chicken, beef, or pork to increase flavor.
