Growing Thyme - Herb of Courage
Thyme can be preserved by freezing or drying. To dry, lay the stems of thyme flat or hang them in
bunches in a shady, dry loca�on. Strip the dry leaves from the stems and store in an air�ght
container. To freeze, lie on a cookie pan, freeze, store in air�ght freezer bags, and use as required.
Bouquet Garni
2 sprigs parsley 1 sprig thyme Tie together with white string, immerse in cooking liquid, and remove
before serving. Bouquet garni are flavouring agents composed of herbs �ed together and immersed
in liquids, early in the process of cooking to enhance the flavour of dishes such as soups, stews, and
some vegetables. You can make bouquet garni ahead-of-�me and preserve their flavour by tying in
bundles, place in plas�c bags, label and date them, and freeze for later use.
