There was a chef who had a dish he needed to cook.

He had almost all of the ingredients he needed.

But he did not have enough of one crucial spice.

He was pressed for thyme.

A spice belt for chefs.

Might be a waist of thyme

A man approached me and told me he was a chef.

He asked if I had spices among other ingredients to make a nice dish so I obliged. He began mixing some of the said spices and I allowed it, thinking it was to make mixed spice, then he got one of them and poured it on the floor.It was then I realized he was wasting my thyme.

What did the chef say to his assistant when he got handed the wrong ingredients?.

This is neither the thyme nor the plaice.

Police are searching for a fugitive chef after he killed a customer who was arguing about spices used in a dish.

They are saying it's only a matter of thyme.

A chef made my soup in a rush and I asked "Why didn't you add any herbs and spices?".

He said "Sorry, I didn't have the thyme".

Yo, check out my spice rack...

No need to rush, I've got all the thyme in the world.
