Lemon thyme sugar

Ingredients

  • 200 g granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons lemon thyme leaves
  • grated zest of ½ unwaxed lemon

Method

  1. Grind the leaves and lemon zest with a few spoonfuls of the sugar in a mortar.
  2. Mix with the rest of the sugar.
  3. Spread the sugar on a plate for an hour to dry, then put it in a tightly closed jar.
  4. Leave for a week so the scent infuses the sugar. Use it in biscuits, on strawberries or in tea.

Storing: Six months, kept dry and tightly closed.
