Bonita’s Tips
Dried thyme: Has a more concentrated, deeper, and seasoned flavour
Fresh thyme: Has a more delicate, bright flavour. Use what you have available.
Use evaporated milk and one teaspoon of vinegar and a pinch of lemon to make a buttermilk or also to sour the milk for using in baked goods.
