Here are a few ideas to enjoy thyme confit:

1. Slow-cooked meats: Stir a spoonful into an osso buco, lamb stew or chicken casserole for an extra layer of aromatic depth.
2. Roasted vegetables: Mix the confit with olive oil and drizzle over tomatoes, courgettes or mushrooms before roasting in the oven.
3. Cheese pairings: Spoon over warm camembert, fresh goat's cheese or comté — a classic and elegant combination.
4. Aperitif toasts: Spread on toasted bread with a drizzle of honey and a few walnuts for a quick and easy Southern-inspired canapé.
5. Salad dressings: Stir half a teaspoon into a homemade vinaigrette to dress a lentil, tomato or rocket salad.
6. Marinades: Combine the confit with lemon juice, garlic and olive oil to marinate lamb or chicken skewers.
7. Pizzas & focaccias: Spread a thin layer over the dough before adding toppings, in place of tomato sauce, for an aromatic and original base.
8. Pasta sauces: Add the confit to a cream or tomato sauce for flavour-packed tagliatelle or gnocchi.
