Herbes de Provence Recipe
Description
The Herbes de Provence recipe consists of equal parts dried summer savory, rosemary, and oregano, complemented by a smaller quantity of dried thyme. Optionally, dried lavender flowers may be included, although they are more common in North American variations rather than traditional French blends. The herbs are combined and stored in an airtight jar to preserve fragrance and flavor.
This blend serves as a convenient seasoning to impart herbal complexity to various dishes. It can be sprinkled over grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or incorporated into sauces and marinades. Its dried form makes it a shelf-stable pantry staple for Mediterranean-style cooking.
The ability to scale the recipe up or down allows cooks to make quantities appropriate for their needs while keeping the herbs fresh by storing in a cool, dark place.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon summer savory dried
- 1 tablespoon rosemary dried
- 1 tablespoon oregano dried
- 2 teaspoons thyme dried
- 1/2 teaspoon lavender optional; not traditional in France, typically found only in blends marketed in North America, dried flowers
Instructions
- Place all of the herbs in an airtight jar and shake to combine. Store the blend in a dark, cool place where it will keep for a few months.This makes just under 1/4 cup. Feel free to double, triple, etc if desired.
