Botanical name: (Thymus mongolicus)

A delicate looking plant with a penetrating fragrance, it's a wonderful addition to bean, egg and vegetable dishes. The leaves are curled, elliptically shaped and very small, measuring about one—eighth of an inch long and one—sixteenth of an inch wide. The upper leaf is green—gray in color on top, while the underside is a whitish color. Along with fresh sprigs of parsley and bay leaves, it's included in the French combination of herbs called bouquet—garni used to season stock, stews and soups.

Thyme occurs in the west Mediterranean to the southwest Italy. The herb was known to the Sumerians, used by the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans as a notable strengthener of the lungs. Its main medicinal application is in treating coughs and clearing congestion. Many current formulas for mouth washes and vapor rubs contain Thymol, one of the constituents found in thyme. It also improves digestion, destroys intestinal parasites and is an excellent antiseptic and tonic
