Herbes de Provence is a herbal mix of floral, sweet Provençal herbs originating from the South of France. The mix includes thyme, fennel, savory, marjoram, rosemary and lavender. The blend is used abundantly in local Mediterranean cuisine and is featured in Nigella Lawsons 2004 Feast Cookbook as ‘Lavender Herb Mix’.
This French herb blend is a great way to get the sunny flavours of France in your kitchen! Herbes de Provence is great for vegetable dishes like ratatouille that use aubergine and courgette.
The exact origin of Herbes de Provence is unclear, but it is thought to have been used for centuries in the Provence region of southeastern France, where the warm, sunny climate is ideal for growing a wide variety of herbs. Some sources even suggest that the blend of herbs used in Herbes de Provence has its roots in ancient Roman cuisine, which was heavily influenced by the flavours and ingredients of the Mediterranean region.
Try using with grilled meats like pork, beef and chicken. The mix works perfectly in Game stews that use rabbit, partridge and pigeon. You could even try our non-traditional Spanish Omelette recipe! Also, featured in Nigella Lawsons St. Tropez chicken recipe from her cookbook “Feast”
Herbes de Provence can also be used to make a flavourful and aromatic infused oil or vinegar, which can be used as a salad dressing or to add flavour to roasted vegetables or grilled meats.
