When it comes to spices and herbs, my spice drawer is packed plus I have more in the pantry. I cannot live without them because they are such great flavor enhancers. Adding just a little bit of this and a little bit of that makes a huge different from an ordinary recipe to an exciting and savory meal. As a recipe creator, it’s my personal commitment to find interesting herbs and spices to make my recipes taste amazing.
 
There’s a herb blend I use often in my cooking. I’ve been using it for years now and I just love the combination of herbs in it. Now depending on where you live, you might not find it and it is Herbes de Provence! This is a mixture of dried herbs that I like to grow every year. If you don’t have a Herb Garden, these herbs can be easily found in most grocery stores or online.
 
I use Herbes de Provence in so many recipes, like my Coq au Vin, Herb & Butter Rice, Meat Lovers Pizza, Chicken à la Dijonnaise, Vegetable Tian, Easy Pork Roast, Carrot Soup with Mashed Potatoes, Salisbury Steak with Mushroom Gravy, Mediterranean Fish Fillet with Tapenade, Chicken Cordon Bleu, and so on.
 
Herbes de Provence is a lovely earthy blend of seven different herbs including lavender flowers although this is not really a common ingredient in the typical French blend.
 
It’s a delicious way to enhance your recipes with a lovely touch of earthiness. If you can’t find this in your area, now you can make this homemade Herbes de Provence anytime you want to elevate your recipes.
Bon Appétit!
