Since my original thyme bush was looking a little time-worn, I couldn’t resist this beautiful little specimen of lemon thyme. It is such an attractive little plant and has that wonderful tangy thyme smell with a touch of lemon.
We have recently filled the freezer with winter whiting caught off the Fraser Coast, and lemon thyme seemed like it could be a great complement to whitefish. I tried it the other night with a little bit of chives and poached in a white wine stock.
My other thyme bush has come back after a heavy trimming, so I will still have ordinary thyme to use in my scrambled eggs as well.
