Blooming thyme.... Edible?

My thyme has flowered and I'd heard that herbs are not edible once they flower? Advice? Should I clip them to encourage new growth? What else do I need to know about maintaining this perrenial? Thanks!

Sure you can eat it. Save seeds to share. Trim for aesthetic reasons and/or to dry for later use. Roots in water

you can eat it. With herbs once they go to see they wont produce new leaves(which is what you want) clip the blooms to encourage more growth
