Thyme
I like to add thyme to most meals (the sprigs in salads, soups and chowders give a potent green taste). It is also said to have a slight aftertaste somewhat like cloves. Thyme also goes well with most meats if added toward the end of cooking, and is another incredible tea infusion that has tons of medicinal benefits like soothing sore throats or respiratory issues.
Here’s a yummy recipe for a sweet and savory jelly that will make your lips and your taste buds smile. You probably wouldn’t normally think of adding an herb to a jelly, but thyme and apples meld into an incredibly flavorful result. I like it on a good toasted whole wheat bagel or spread as a chutney with a pasta or meat dish. Sometimes I’ve been known to eat it straight from the spoon…
Ingredients:
2 cups apple cider
3-1/2 cups raw organic sugar
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 pouch (3 ounces) liquid fruit pectin (optional- I think Pectin gives its a weird aftertaste, but it also really helps make that jelly consistency, so its your call. I say try with it and then go without on the next round to compare.
Preparation:
Combine the apple cider, sugar, and thyme in a 4 quart microwave-safe bowl, and stir well. Cook, uncovered, at full power (650 to 700 watts) for 10 minutes. Stir, return to the microwave, and cook until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture has reached a full rolling boil, about 5 more minutes . Stir the pectin into the mixture, return it to the microwave, and cook for 1-1/2 minutes. Skim any foam off the surface, and pack the jelly into sterilized jars according to the manufacturer’s directions.
Yield: 1 quart
