FRANCE
Makes about 1 1/4 cups; enough for 8 pounds meat, poultry, or seafood
Herbs and spices are the very soul of Provençal cooking. As you drive through this sunny corner of southwestern France, you see them growing everywhere: purple fields of fresh lavender, shrub-size bushes of rosemary; fennel so abundant it grows wild by the side of the road. Sometimes these herbs are used fresh, by themselves, but more often they’re dried and mixed to make a perfumed blend called herbes de Provence.
The formula varies from region to region and cook to cook, but the basic ingredients are rosemary, thyme, marjoram, savory, basil, bay leaf, and, for a touch of sweetness, fennel and lavender. Herbes de Provence is sold in most gourmet shops, often in decorative jars at inflated prices. But it’s easy to make your own for a lot less money. (Pots of homemade herbes de Provence make great holiday presents.) There’s nothing like this fragrant blend for enhancing the flavor of grilled lamb, steaks, and even seafood or poultry.
_ tbs rosemary, dried
_ bay leaves
_ tbs basil, dried
_ tbs marjoram, dried
_ tbs dried summer savory
_ tbs oregano, dried
_ tbs thyme, dried
_ tsp fennel seeds
_ tsp dried lavender

In a small bowl crumble the rosemary and bay leaves between your fingers to break them into small pieces. Whisk in the remaining ingredients. Store the herbes de Provence in an airtight jar away from heat and light for up to 6 months.
