Wild Marjoram | Origanum vulgare

Wild Marjoram (Origanum vulgare) is an aromatic herb in the mint family, best known as oregano. It is valued for its warm, savory flavor with a slightly bitter, pungent note and a dry, herbaceous aroma. Native to Europe and parts of western Asia, wild marjoram is a classic culinary herb used in Mediterranean and regional cooking.

This herb is commonly used to season tomato sauces, roasted vegetables, beans, soups, stews, grilled meats, and pizza. Its flavor holds up well during cooking, so it is often added early in the preparation of savory dishes. Wild marjoram can also be used dried or fresh, depending on the recipe and the intensity of flavor desired.

How to Use

• Cooking: Add to sauces, soups, and stews for a classic oregano flavor.
• Seasoning: Sprinkle over roasted vegetables, potatoes, or grilled dishes before or after cooking.
• Herb blends: Combine with thyme, basil, rosemary, or garlic in Mediterranean seasoning mixes.
