There is something magical about the smell of dried herbs mingling together. This classic blend captures the essence of French cooking and adds a lovely earthy flavor to whatever you are making for dinner.

I love keeping a jar of this in my pantry because it saves so much time when I need to season a quick meal. You can use it on everything from roast chicken to simple roasted potatoes.

🧺 Ingredients

3 tablespoons dried thyme
2 tablespoons dried savory
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried marjoram
1 teaspoon dried lavender buds (optional)

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Measure all the dried herbs and place them into a small bowl.
2
Use a mortar and pestle or your clean fingertips to lightly crush the herbs so they release more of their natural oils.
3
Stir the herbs together until they are evenly combined.
4
Transfer the mixture to a clean glass jar with a tight lid for storage.
5
Use about one teaspoon of the blend for every pound of meat or vegetables you are cooking.

💡 Tips

Store your herb blend in a cool, dark cupboard to keep the flavors fresh for up to six months. If you want to use it as a marinade, mix a tablespoon of the herbs with a quarter cup of good olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
