Regal Marjoram is the dried leaves and
floral parts of the herb, Origanium
hortensis. Scientists consider
Marjoram to be a species of Oregano.
Marjoram is pleasantly aromatic and has a
distinctively minty-sweet flavor with slightly
bitter undertones.
Regal Marjoram may be used in
sausages, lamb, beef, pork, chicken, fish,
tomato dishes, stuffings, breads, salad
dressings, and chowders. Marjoram is
used in Italian, French, North African,
Middle Eastern, and American cuisines
and spice blends such as bouqet garni,
fine herbs, and sausage and pickle
blends. It is often mistaken for oregano,
but they are different. It is mainly used in
flavoring meat dishes. Marjoram's flavor is
so delicate, it's best added toward the end
of the cooking time to retain its flavor.
Marjoram must be crushed before using.
Sold in a 2 oz. bottle.
