Thyme

With thyme one fresh sprig equals one-half teaspoon of dried thyme. In general, use two to three times the amount of fresh thyme as dried. When adding to soups and stews, crush the leaves between your hands before stirring it in your recipe.

Tarragon is really good for chicken, it was a sweet tangy taste to it.

They both have very different flavours, different usages and different leaf shapes.

How big a sprig? You must be specific. But 1/2 tsp dry ground thyme = 1 tsp fresh thyme if that is any help. That's the leaves not including the stem.

Along with fresh sprigs of parsley and bay leaves, thyme is included in the French combination of herbs called bouquet garni used to season stock, stews, and soups. Thyme is delicious with all types of beans, for example kidney or pinto beans. You can add it to bean stews, casseroles, and other dishes using beans. Add a little thyme to any sauce to go with pasta. Sprinkle it into scrambles. Add thyme to soups and stocks for additional flavor. Use it in marinades. Sprinkle thyme onto salads. Add it to breadcrumb mixtures and coat vegetables and bake or saute. Use thyme in homemade stuffing for holiday roasts. Sprinkle it over vegetables before grilling. Add thyme to a simple tomato and balsamic vinaigrette salad. Add it to homemade burger or croquette mixtures. Add thyme to dough mixtures for bread and scones.

You can't really measure it that way, despite what the books say, which I very much refute on. It's said that 1 tsp of ground thyme is equivalent to 2 and half tablespoon of fresh thyme.

But it changes when you blanch your fresh thyme first - That's when they are activated.

Their smell goes stronger, their 'stem' bursts out in flavor and everything in the herb goes wild.

Same goes to other strong herbs like dill, rosemary, etc.

Yes, strain the soup to get thyme out, don't put as much in and maybe put another herb in to overpower it.

Parsley keeps time.

Thyme is a C3 plant. C3 plants primarily use the Calvin cycle for photosynthesis, which is efficient in cooler, moist environments with ample sunlight. Thyme thrives in such conditions, making it well-suited for C3 photosynthesis.

Ground Rosemary

For pork, lamb or potato recipes, rosemary works well as a substitution for thyme.

It is a measurement of an herb.

Rheumatism, gout, sciatica, toothache, cuts, wounds, athletes' foot, upper respiratory tract infections, digestive tract problems, genitourinary system problems, migraines, colic, menstrual pain, diarrhea.

There is no clinical cure for HIV/Aids yet. Although, some researchers have discovered that very concentrated thyme oil can deactivate the virus in vetro (test tubes).

T. vulgaris L. is also known as garden thyme, and T. serpyllum is also known as creeping thyme, mother of thyme, wild thyme and mountain thyme.

I will repeat an answer found within the other good answers: Rule of thumb is 1 tsp dried herb substituted for 1 tablespoon fresh herb.

Yes, thyme would be a great seasoning for turkey stuffing. As would rosemary, garlic, onion and many others.
