Organic Mediterranean Oregano, Origanum vulgare is a member of the Lamiaceae, or mint, family. A robust herb that is both complex and strongly aromatic. It works well in combination with chili powder, chiles, cumin, garlic, onion and pepper. Outstanding in enchiladas, egg and cheese dishes, bean dishes, mixed fruit, tomato sauces and stews. If your recipe calls for Mexican oregano, this will provide a very different flavor profile.
