Description
Marjoramis the dried leaves and floral parts of the herb Origanium
hortensis. Most scientists consider Marjoram to be a species of
Oregano. The light grayish-green leaves of Marjoram have a sweeter
and more delicate flavor than Oregano.
Uses
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 bouquet garni, fines
herbes, and sausage and pickle blends.
Origins
Egypt is the principal source for nearly all of the Marjoram imported
into the United States. Other producers include East Europe, France
and the United States.
Folklore
Marjoram and Oregano were well known in the Roman-Graeco era. The
ancient Greeks believed that if Marjoram grew on one's grave, the
deceased would enjoy eternal peace and happiness. The word "Oregano"
is Greek, derived and translated means "Joy of the Mountain".
Oregano was popular in ancient Egypt and Greece as a flavoring for
vegetables, wines, meats and fish.
