About the product

Ziółko Dried Oregano Leaves are the leaves of common oregano (Origanum vulgare), also known as ‘wild marjoram’. Once dried and crushed, they retain their aromatic, peppery and spicy flavour with a subtle bitterness.

Oregano is an indispensable ingredient in Italian and Greek cuisine. It forms a classic combination with tomatoes, courgettes, peppers, aubergines and garlic. It goes well with egg and cheese dishes (mozzarella, feta), and enhances the flavour of minestrone, stews, sauces and pizza. In Greek cuisine, it is a staple spice for souvlaki and meat marinades.
