Herbes de Provence

Herbes de Provence is a mix of dried herbs with its origin in Provence in southern France.

This mixture might contain basil, fennel seed, lavender, marjoram, rosemary, sage, summer savory and thyme. The portion of each herb varies dramatically depending on the maker. It is used for meat, poultry and vegetables, and is typically used in "country-style" cooking, as opposed to haute cuisine.
