Oregano

Oregano is a flowering plant in the mint family (Lamiaceae). Oregano is related to the medicinal plant marjoram, sometimes called wild marjoram.
Oregano is a culinary herb used for the aroma of its leaves, which can be more aromatic when dried than fresh. It has an aromatic, warm, and slightly bitter flavor that can vary in intensity.

Today, oregano is most widely used as a main herb in Italian cuisine. It is most often used with baked, fried, or grilled vegetables, meat, and fish. Oregano pairs well with the spicy dishes popular in southern Italy. Dried and ground leaves are most often used in Greece to flavor Greek salads, and are commonly added to a lemon-olive oil dressing that accompanies grilled fish or meat dishes and stews.
