my english thyme is turning red…can I still eat it?
Without seeing a picture of it, I can’t tell for sure, but quite often, in the fall, even plants that don’t lose their leaves (like thyme) change color as the nights get cooler. It’s not harmful, and in most cases, it will revert back to its regular green color in the spring.
I think it’s safe to say it will still be edible, however, it might have a slight flavor change as well, and be a bit stronger. Just use a little less than you usually would until you can gauge if you need to alter the amount you use in your recipes.
Hope this helps!
