It mixes well in salads with olive oil and vinager, it gives a lemony taste to anything: cream cheese and dill dip, lemon thyme in mint tea...it's great!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07616901530260097720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21318605.post-1149868945872579222006-06-09T11:02:00.000-05:002006-06-09T11:02:00.000-05:00I just planted lemon thyme this year for the first...I just planted lemon thyme this year for the first time, so I am excited to try some of these ideas.Kalyn Dennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02499065771517548587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21318605.post-1149775051230280522006-06-08T08:57:00.000-05:002006-06-08T08:57:00.000-05:00Chefs are divided on whether lemon-thyme is delici...Chefs are divided on whether lemon-thyme is delicious or tastes like Lemon Pledge but anywhere you could use thyme, you could use lemon-thyme. <BR/><BR/>To follow up on Steven's graeat recommendation (because once we in America discovered fresh herbs, we forgot that dried herbs are better in long-cooked items), you could make maitre d'hotel butter by adding leaves from a few sprigs, garlic, pepper and some salt to a stick of butter. Mash it all together, wrap it up with plastic into a log shape and freeze it. You can use it all winter long.Miss Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17378689772211207977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21318605.post-1149773520738318912006-06-08T08:32:00.000-05:002006-06-08T08:32:00.000-05:00I've used fresh snippings of it to make a tea--tis...I've used fresh snippings of it to make a tea--tisane, if you want to be a stickler for correctness. It's really good with a bit of honey, and occasionally I throw some ginger in as well.<BR/><BR/>I admit that I'm not up on the medicinal aspects of herbs, so you may want to check before you drink a whole lot of any kind of herbal tea--especially if you have any conditions or take any meds already. I seem to remember that thyme is supposed to be good for your airways/breathing, though.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14395380166485303934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21318605.post-1149727614028751112006-06-07T19:46:00.000-05:002006-06-07T19:46:00.000-05:00my lemon thyme is flourishing as well, much more t...my lemon thyme is flourishing as well, much more than my plain english thyme. i'd use it in anything that calls for thyme. the scent is wonderful.Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10551798530745081825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21318605.post-1149695633056864122006-06-07T10:53:00.000-05:002006-06-07T10:53:00.000-05:00Grilled Lemon-Thyme Beef Steaks Ingredients• 4 we...Grilled Lemon-Thyme Beef Steaks <BR/> <BR/>Ingredients<BR/>• 4 well-trimmed boneless beef top loin (strip) or ribeye steaks, cut 1 inch thick (about 2-1/2 to 3 pounds)<BR/><BR/>Seasoning<BR/>• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh lemon thyme<BR/>• 2 tablespoons minced garlic<BR/>• 1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon peel<BR/>• 1 tablespoon olive oil<BR/>• 2 teaspoons coarse grind black pepper<BR/>• 1 teaspoon salt <BR/><BR/>Preparation<BR/>1.
