Thyme seasoning, whose main ingredient is thyme, adds a delightful flavor to many dishes. It enhances taste with earthy, savory notes. I mainly use it for my favorite Mediterranean and French cuisines, including soups, sauces, and stews. Also, depending on the recipe, thyme seasoning is great for roasts and chicken breasts. 

Making thyme seasoning at home shouldn’t be a teary task. It involves blending the versatile herb with other common ones, including rosemary, sage, oregano, and basil. Mix the spices with onion, black pepper, garlic powder, and salt to taste. Let’s see the perfect way of mixing the above ingredients. You will need several items.
