Thyme

Thyme has been known since ancient times and was used by Greeks, Romans and Egyptians with references from Pliny and Dioscorides. In ancient Greece it was used, in addition to cooking and medicine, as incense for altars and temples because of its special aroma. The Egyptians used it to embalm the dead, and Roman soldiers poured it into their baths for courage.

It is one of the herbs that is resistant to cooking, we can use it from the beginning to bring out its aroma, but also in marinating. It is combined, especially in roasts, with sage and rosemary.
