• The essence of earthy elegance!

Thyme is a very popular herb in Greece. Its taste and aroma perfectly embody the essence of Greek cuisine! More than just a fantastic taste! In addition to its delicious taste, thyme was historically considered a symbol of courage and was known for its aphrodisiac properties.

In the 16th century, women served thyme soup and beer to their lovers as a romantic stimulant. At the same time, crushed thyme leaves were used as pillow stuffing to alleviate melancholy and soothe patients.

Today, thyme is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry, mainly due to its antibacterial and antiseptic properties. It is also rich in vitamin K, manganese, calcium, and iron.

Add a Greek touch to your dishes! Thyme is a wonderful herb that, in addition to its health-promoting properties, has enhanced Greek cuisine since ancient times.

Serving recommendations:

Thyme can replace oregano in various dishes, but the combination of both creates an unforgettable taste!

We recommend using thyme in salads, especially in combination with extra virgin olive oil. Add a few finely chopped leaves to your next pasta sauce – you'll be delighted! It also pairs wonderfully with fish, meat, and poultry, and is perfect for seasoning marinades. Add the thyme only a few minutes before serving or immediately after turning off the heat. When baking bread, try mixing a few dried thyme leaves into the dough.
