TAM.
Tarragon Rosemary an Thyme go lovely together.
Remember to bash the herbs or crush them and the flavors will be much stronger,
With shop brought dried herbs if one is not certain what herbs goes with what herbs you can make a easy taster to check.
                                     Get a small bowl.
                                     Place a Level Table spoon of Dried herbs you want to test in the bowl.
                                     With a Level Tablespoon of Flour,
                                     Add 2 teaspoons of Milk until creamy.
                                     you have now created a creamy herb sauce?
                                     (it should have the consistency of yogurt)
                                     Put it in the fridge for half hour,
                                     Take out of fridge and taste with a Tea spoon or on a piece of bread.
                                       
                                     If your eyes shoot out your Ears-holes and your Bum collapses
                                     you know the herbs do not mix.
                                    
Seriously though be minimal but equal with every ingredient
and taste gingerly.
Regards Pierre.
