Description
Ethiopia thyme (Thymus vulgaris), which has the local name of Tossegen is one of the most favored salad and dessert dressings of all the regional herbs. The medicinal plant is common in meat dressing, vegetarian cuisines and even its droplets feature in herbal tea. Its greatest attribute, perhaps is the marinating quality of adding flavor and aroma to popular dishes. The crop first appeared in literature in Egypt where the locals embalmed bodies with the herb.
We source Ethiopia thyme from the central region of the country in the Jimma Zone. The plant grows under natural and irrigated conditions. We only source from family growers who plant each crop at temperatures above 20° Celsius and can thrive in even arid conditions under well-drained soils. Our family growers cultivate under cooperatives that provide them with Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) certificates.
