Provence Cooking with Olive Oil and Wild Herbs in The South Of France, Provence
The hills provide the herbs and the local
butcher, baker and grocer in the small
village the rest. A trip to the olive oil mill
with a jug and you can fill up on first
cold press olive oil.
A trip to the vineyard with a jug will
supply the wine.
Fresh vegetable and fruit come to the
markets in June, some from the local
farmers who also provide goats cheese.

The cuisine of Provence depends on fresh
vegetables and fruit that come from the farms.
The vegetables dishes and salads then receive
an anointment with the herbs that grow wild in the
hills. The meat dishes, often chicken or most
commonly lamb, then get their sprinkle with the
herb combinations and a basting with olive oil.
The herbs commonly found in the hills are
rosemary and thyme. Along with savory, bay leaf,
and lavender they make what is now called herbs
de Provence,
These herbs grow everywhere in the hills and at
times along the roads. They are also plentiful in
the markets.
The name Herbs de Provence is a modern spice
company's creation but the use of these
commonly growing plants goes back centuries,
Thyme will be the most recognisable in a dish with
rosemary and then the others being more subtle.
Another seasoner commonly found in Provence
cooking is the orange rind. Used dry and ground
into the meal it is called zest. The rind can also be
sliced thin or diced and cooked with the meal.
Provence cooks use little or no salt in cooking,
adding it at the table in the form of Camargue sea
salt served in a glass container. The taste comes
form the freshness of the ingredients and the use
of spices
