thyme for embalming, while Greeks and Romans associated it with courage and
strength. Thyme's reputation spread throughout Europe, finding its way into
medieval gardens and literature. The herb's Latin name, "vulgaris,"
translates to "common," reflecting its widespread use throughout
history.
Medicinally, thyme leaves contain thymol, a compound with antiseptic and
expectorant properties. Thyme tea was traditionally used to soothe coughs and
congestion, while poultices were applied to wounds to promote healing.
In the culinary world, thyme is a staple herb. Its warm, peppery flavor
