ʻO Thyme kahi mea ʻala maʻamau mai ka ʻāina Mediterranean a no laila hoʻohana pinepine ʻia i ka meaʻai Mediterranean. Hiki ke hoʻohana hou a maloʻo paha. I loko o ka mana maloʻo, loaʻa i ka thyme kahi mana hoʻonani kiʻekiʻe. Hoʻoulu wale ʻo ia i kona ʻala ma lalo o ka wela kiʻekiʻe, no laila ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻohana ʻana no nā kīʻaha moʻa. Hoʻohui ʻia ka thyme i ka wā o ka kuke ʻana. A laila hiki ke moʻa ʻia ma ke ʻano he lālā holoʻokoʻa a wehe hou ʻia ma mua o ka lawelawe ʻana. Ua ʻōlelo ʻia he hopena maikaʻi ka lau nahele i ka ʻai ʻana, ʻo ia ke kumu kūpono ʻo thyme no ka ʻono ʻana i nā kīʻaha paʻakikī a momona.
Loaʻa ka lau nahele i nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole, e like me ka lemon a i ʻole ka ʻalani thyme, caraway thyme, a i ʻole thyme Jamaican. ʻOkoʻa lākou a pau i ka ʻono a hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia i nā ʻano like ʻole. Hāʻawi ka ʻalani a me ka lemon thyme i kahi ʻala citrus māmā, ʻoiai ʻo caraway thyme e ʻono like me ka caraway. Hoʻohana pinepine ʻia ka thyme Jamaican no ka iʻa, ʻoi aku hoʻi ma kona ʻāina hānau Caribbean.
- Nā Soups a me nā Stews: Hoʻohui ʻo Thyme i ka ʻono i nā sopa meaʻai a me nā stews. Hoʻohui maikaʻi nā ʻōmato me ka mea ʻala. No ka laʻana, ʻo koume kahi ʻāpana nui o ka ratatouille a hiki ke hoʻohui maikaʻi ʻia i nā ʻano ʻokoʻa ʻē aʻe me nā mea kanu Mediterranean e like me ka aubergines, peppers, a i ʻole zucchini. Hāʻawi pū ia i nā ʻuala tōmato, no ka laʻana no ka pasta a i ʻole ka ʻiʻo, kahi leka ʻono.
- ʻO ka ʻiʻo a me ka iʻa: Hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻo Thyme i nā hoʻomākaukau he nui me ka ʻiʻo mahalo i kona ʻala ʻala. No ka laʻana, hele maikaʻi loa ka mea ʻala me nā ʻano ʻano ʻiʻo a pau, ʻoi aku ka hipa, holoholona, pipi, akā he moa. No ka mea, hoʻomohala wale ka mea ʻala i kona ʻala piha ma hope o ka kuke ʻana no kekahi manawa, kūpono loa ia no nā stews e pili ana i ka ʻiʻo a me nā mea kanu. Hiki ke hoʻohui maikaʻi ʻia ʻo Thyme me ka iʻa.
- ʻO ka ʻuala: ʻOi aku ka ʻono o ka ʻuala me ka hoʻohui ʻana o koume. No ka laʻana, hiki ke hoʻomaʻamaʻa ʻia nā sopa ʻuala e like me ia. ʻO ka ʻuala ʻuala a me nā ʻano kīʻaha ʻuala ʻē aʻe i loaʻa pinepine iā thyme.
- Nā mea kanu ʻē aʻe: Ua hui maikaʻi ʻo Thyme me nā mea kanu ʻē aʻe. ʻO ka hui pū ʻana o koume a me ka rosemary he mea maʻamau. Eia nō naʻe, loaʻa i nā lāʻau ʻelua kahi ʻala ikaika loa, ʻo ia ke kumu e hōʻoia ai ʻaʻole lākou e hoʻomalu nui i ka pā a uhi i nā mea ʻala ʻē aʻe. ʻO Thyme kekahi ʻāpana o nā ʻano mea kanu like ʻole, no ka laʻana, "Herbs of Provence". Ma hope o nā mea a pau, hiki ke hoʻohui pū ʻia ka ʻono a me ka momona o ka lau nahele me ke kāleka.
