About the product

Ziółko Provençal Herbs is a classic Mediterranean blend with a unique aroma and countless culinary benefits. There is no single, set recipe for this iconic blend – the Provençal herb mixes available on the market often differ from one another by one or two ingredients.

The Ziółko blend is based on 6 classic Provençal ingredients: basil, rosemary, oregano, thyme, savory and parsley. It is a perfect combination of subtle flavours and aromas – particularly recommended as an alternative to salt in low-sodium diets. It enhances the flavour of all types of meat, fish dishes, soups and salads.

What makes up the blend?

• Basil – the freshness of the blend, a spicy-balsamic flavour with a lemony-peppery aroma
  
• Rosemary – a piney scent, a slightly bitter taste, the foundation for roasting meat
  
• Oregano – a Mediterranean aroma, a staple spice of Italian cuisine
  
• Thyme – brings all the flavours together into a cohesive whole, the foundation of the blend
  
• Savory – a slightly bitter note, a counterbalance to the freshness of the basil
  
• Parsley – a refreshingly tangy flavour, adding variety to the composition

Uses

A versatile blend for many dishes: French cuisine (ratatouille, bouillabaisse, Provençal daube), Italian (focaccia, pasta sauces, pizza), Polish (stews, roasts, marinades). Excellent with meat (lamb, beef, poultry), baked fish, grilled vegetables (courgette, aubergine, peppers), soups, salads and sauces. Works well as an alternative to salt in a low-sodium diet.

Directions for use

Add during cooking to allow the flavours to develop fully. Typical serving: 1/2 - 1 teaspoon per 4 portions of the dish. For marinades: rub in with extra virgin olive oil and garlic (30 minutes before roasting). For focaccia: sprinkle on before baking, along with coarse salt. For ratatouille: add to the simmering vegetables. It pairs well with garlic, olive oil and white wine.
