This rustic blend combines thyme, rosemary, savory, marjoram, and lavender for a fragrant seasoning that suits roasted meats, vegetables, and crusty breads. Mixing your own lets you control the ratio of floral lavender to earthy thyme, and keeps the blend fresher than store-bought jars. A few minutes of measuring and crushing is all it takes to stock your pantry for months.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup dried thyme
  • 1/2 cup dried rosemary, crushed
  • 1/4 cup dried savory
  • 1/4 cup dried marjoram
  • 1/4 cup dried oregano
  • 2 tablespoons dried lavender buds
  • 2 tablespoons dried fennel seeds
  • 1 tablespoon dried basil

Method

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the dried thyme, crushed rosemary, savory, marjoram, and oregano.

  2. Add the lavender buds, fennel seeds, and dried basil to the bowl.

  3. Using your fingers or a mortar and pestle, gently crush the mixture to release the aromatic oils, keeping some texture rather than pulverizing it into a powder.

  4. Stir the blend thoroughly until all herbs are evenly distributed.

  5. Transfer the blend to an airtight jar and store in a cool, dark place, using within 6 months for best flavor.
