Oregano is one of those spices that cannot be missing from Italian dishes - including spaghetti bolognese, which is unequivocally associated with Italy. Oregano gives the spaghetti an intense aroma and a slightly bitter aftertaste. Interestingly, adding too much high-quality oregano - due to the substances they contain such as carvacrol and thymol - can cause... a feeling of numbness on the tongue!
Herbs de Provence - a blend of spices such as thyme, basil, oregano, savory, rosemary and marjoram - wonderfully complements the flavour of spaghetti with minced meat. The refreshing and distinctive notes of the individual spices make not only spaghetti, but also other dishes (such as casseroles) based on minced meat, even more aromatic.

Thyme is one of those spices you can't pass by indifferently - providing both spicy and refreshing aromas. Thyme not only improves the taste of spaghetti with minced meat, but also has a positive effect on our health - showing antibacterial and antiseptic effects. Its rich flavour and intense aroma make it used for meats as well as stews, stuffings or vegetables.
