Mixed Herbs – Mediterranean Blend
Mixed Herbs from Orlandosidee
The Greek island of Crete is known for its rich variety of wild aromatic herbs. The local soil and climate create ideal conditions for the development of intense and characteristic flavors. This Mediterranean herb blend was specially curated by Orlandosidee.
It combines thyme, basil, rosemary, oregano, mint, sage, and marjoram.
The balanced combination of herbal notes offers a Mediterranean flavor experience. Spicy thyme, fresh basil, resinous rosemary, robust oregano, aromatic mint, distinctive sage, and flavorful marjoram come together in a versatile blend.
Culinary Use
This wild herb blend is excellent for seasoning grilled meat or fish, and for preparing salad dressings or marinades. For example, to marinate lamb chops, place them in a plastic bag with olive oil, a halved garlic clove, and one teaspoon of the herb mixture. Shake well and refrigerate overnight. Remove the meat from the fridge at least one hour before grilling to bring it to room temperature.
Another popular use is homemade herb butter. Mix 150 g of softened butter with one teaspoon of the herb blend and a finely crushed garlic clove. Shape the butter into a roll using cling film and chill in the refrigerator. Once firm, slice as needed for grilled dishes or bread.
The herbs are also suitable for seasoning a wide range of Mediterranean recipes. For additional flavor options, you may also like our herbs de Provence.
