Dried herbs will keep one to three years, but will start to lose their flavor over time.
Making herbes de Provence is a great way to use up all those half-full bottles of dried herbs in your spice rack. The traditional herb mixture from the Provence region of France includes a combination of thyme, rosemary, savory, marjoram, and oregano. Other recipe variations include additional herbs like tarragon, fennel seeds, bay leaves or chervil. For this easy homemade substitute, dried thyme and rosemary are required, and I always have them on hand. After that, I will add a combination of marjoram, basil, oregano, tarragon, parsley, or sage — depending on what I have in the kitchen.
If I don't have summer savory or winter savory, thyme is the closest substitute. If I don't have marjoram, I'll substitute oregano since it's similar in flavor. Pro tip: Oregano works as a one-for-one substitute for marjoram in this herb mixture but in other recipes, you may want to use less oregano because it has a stronger flavor than marjoram.
While lavender is not included in the traditional French mixture , many herbes de Provence blends you find in grocery stores will include lavender buds or flowers. I'm not really a fan of using lavender in the mix. Skipping the lavender makes the blend more versatile — I will often use it in place of an Italian herbs blend since it has a similar flavor profile without the lavender.
The great thing about making your own herbs and spice blends is that you can add whatever you like. You really can't go wrong. Just add your favorites, and adjust the proportions to your taste.
Make as much or as little as you need. John B Thompson. Rating: 4 stars. Almost perfect but there is no Lavender in Herbs de Provence, in any recipe, in France! I lived there for 20 years. Americans have confused and ruined the recipe by assuming that the Lavender that is produced in Provence for soap, is used in the mix. It is certainly not.
Imagine putting lavender into your ratatouille and you get the picture. Wonderful Herbs de Provence seasoning recipe. It is so good when combined with beef bouillon basil garlic and ginger on a steak!! Smells amazing! I don't have a spice grinder so I used my good ole mortar and pestle and I ground up my savory as well since it was pretty big pieces of leaves.
I also had no bay powder so I ground up a whole leaf easier said than done but smelled yummy! Marianne Allstar. Very nice blend of spices! I will use this rather than try to buy some! Thank you so much Mariposa! Roxanne Romanek. It was a great addition to my 40 clove chicken. Prep Time 5 mins.
