Femme Organics Oregano Flakes

Whether sprinkled over a slice of pizza, worked into a flavorsome marinade, or stirred into a brothy soup, there’s no denying that oreganoinstantly improves any savory creation.

Thanks to its subtly sweet, herbaceous flavor, oregano has become one ofthe most popular cooking herbs in the world, featured prominently in Italian, Turkish, Mexican, and Greek cuisine. Unlike most herbs, oreganois mostly commonly sold and used in its dry form, as the aromas of fresh oregano are highly pungent and can easily overpower a dish. Fresh oregano is generally used as a garnish, or added at the end of cooking. 
 

Some of the most common uses of oregano include tomato-centric recipes, like pizza and pasta sauce, as well as olive oil-based
dishes. Oregano is commonly combined with olive oil to create flavorful
oregano oil, Italian vinaigrettes, and marinades for lamb, chicken, and beef dishes. Other ingredients that pair well with oregano include garlic, basil, onion, and thyme.

Fresh oregano leaves are an excellent garnish to add in moderation at the end of cooking, particularly to hearty vegetables like eggplant, zucchini and cauliflower. Whether cooking with dried or fresh oregano, it’s best to crush or chop
the herbs by hand before adding them to a dish in order to release the 
flavorful essential oils contained within.

In addition to being packed with vitamins A, C, and K, and minerals like
iron, calcium, and manganese, oregano is also rich in dietary fiber. 
This leafy herb is also packed with essential oils like carvacrol and 
thymol, which have antibacterial, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory 
powers that help to fight harmful free radicals and prevent illness.
