Oregano Herb, or Origanum Vulgare, is an herb with intense flavor and aroma. It is used to enhance a range of dishes, such as soups, sauces, and salads, and is known for having a strong antiseptic effect. It can be added to recipes for a rich and flavorful experience.
Oregano is related to the herb marjoram, sometimes being referred to as wild marjoram. It has purple flowers and spade-shaped, olive-green leaves. It is a perennial, although it is grown as an annual in colder climates, as it often does not survive the winter. Oregano is planted in early spring. It prefers a hot, relatively dry climate, but does well in other environments.
