Nutritional values

The essential oils of thyme can kill germs, inhibit inflammation and loosen phlegm and cramps. Therefore, the herb is particularly beneficial for sore throats, coughs and stomach problems.

Instead of pine nuts, try walnuts in the dip: they provide even more healthy polyunsaturated fatty acids.
