Herbs de Provence 50g

description

Herbs de Provence is a versatile herbal blend that reflects the heart of southern French cuisine. Originally from the Provence region of France, this blend traditionally consists of a selection of aromatic herbs that thrive in the warm, sunny landscapes of southern France. The most well-known ingredients in “Herbs de Provence” are thyme, rosemary, oregano, savory and often also lavender, basil and marjoram - the exact composition may vary, but these herbs always form the basis of the blend.

The history of Provençal herbs goes back a long way and is closely linked to the rural traditions of this region. In the past, the herbs were collected wild and used in dried form as important spices and medicinal plants in the kitchen. Their intense, natural seasoning quickly gained a firm place in French gastronomy and is now used in a variety of dishes - from hearty meat dishes to fine sauces and stews.

Our blend of “Herbs de Provence” has been lovingly put together in many experiments and is an excellent seasoning aid for all gourmets.
Enrich a marinade with these herbs to add a perfect herbal note to all meat and fish dishes. Or add a pinch of herbs to ratatouille. Herbs de Provence are also a perfect addition to salad dressings with our vinegars and oils.

In today's cuisine, Provençal herbs are particularly popular in the preparation of stews, such as the famous ratatouille. They also unfold their full potential in meat and fish dishes, especially lamb and chicken. The warm, earthy scent of rosemary and thyme harmonizes perfectly with Mediterranean vegetables, while the hint of lavender gives the mixture a special, floral note.

Use herbes de Provence to conjure up a simple marinade for grilled vegetables or meat. Mix the herb mixture with olive oil and garlic and leave the food to marinate in it for a few hours for a wonderfully intense flavor. Herbs de Provence can also be used in a salad dressing, combined with fresh vinegar and olive oil, to develop their aromas and give every dish a Mediterranean freshness.

Our tip: Sprinkle a small amount of the herb mixture over a baguette, drizzle with olive oil and toast in the oven - a perfect starter or snack for an authentic French meal. Herbs de Provence bring the flair of the South of France directly to your table.
