Post What do you cook using thyme?
I've got a huge thyme plant. I'd like to use it in a dish fresh. I've already dried a ton of it. What recipes do you have that uses thyme??

Almost anything that calls for herbs. Tomato sauce, chicken soup, herb coatings, pot roast, lot's of stuff!

One of my favorite herbs. I often use it fresh when roasting chickens in combination with lemon and garlic. Otherwise, what Rob said ! :D

I use it in my stews, stocks, and many chicken dishes.

It's really good Barb in an omelet with lots of cheese.
I've always liked it in chicken dishes too.

Thanks, I'll keep all these in mind.........I've used in recipes when it called for it but not so much in other things. Thanks Lollie, an omelet sounds good.

Mostly I like thyme in chicken dishes - roasted, chicken salad, or w/ lemon, & white wine.

More ideas:

Bouquet garni

Compound butter

Add to oil and/or vinegar with other herbs for salad dressing

Add to salad with garlic and olive oil

Potatoes au gratin - I have a recipe with heavy cream, nutmeg, thyme & walnuts. Will go through my stash & post it if you like.

How about some parmesan & thyme focaccia:
