Herbs from Provence - Herbes de Provence (EN)


English - Français

Herbs from Provence is a mixture of 5 to 6 different types of herbs that grow in... Provence. ;-) It is in the South of France that this mixture was created.

The mixture that we are most familiar with is the combination of 5 different herbs, namely - rosemary, basil, thyme, marjoram and savory. It is a truly aromatic mixture that concentrates the flavours of the Mediterranean cuisine.


Basil, one of the ingredients in herbs from Provence is considered to have antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial properties. The other ingredient rosemary, is believed to be useful for relieving stress.

How do we use herbs from Provence in our cooking?

There are countless ways for the culinary use of herbs from Provence. Some of the most common ones are:

- Flavouring of stew, soup, and sauce

- Flavouring of roasted meat of grilled beef, lamb, poultry and fish

- Flavouring of baked vegetables such as tomatoes, eggplants and potatoes
