This turned out very nice. Put the finished product in a pretty wine bottle and corked it. Would make a nice gift. Thanks for sharing!

I agree with Chef Kate, delicious! The thyme, summer savoury, basil, oregano and bay leaf blend you suggested is wonderful! Thanks Leonard!

Quite delicious, even made with the sort of herb they sell in greengrocers.
