Product Details

Oregano (Origanum vulgare) is a versatile herb that is widely used in culinary applications and traditional medicine. It is known for its strong flavour, which is a combination of earthy, peppery and slightly bitter notes. Here are various uses, both culinary and medicinal, associated with oregano:

Culinary Uses:

  1. Seasoning: Oregano is a key ingredient in many savoury dishes, especially in Mediterranean and Italian cuisines. It is often used to season sauces, soups, stews, and various meat and vegetable dishes.

  2. Marinades: Oregano is commonly used in marinades for meats, poultry, and fish. It enhances the overall flavour profile of the dish.

  3. Salad Dressings: Fresh or dried oregano can be used in salad dressings, providing a distinctive herbaceous taste to salads.

  4. Grilled Vegetables: Oregano works well with grilled vegetables. Sprinkle over vegetables before grilling for added flavor.

  5. Pasta Dishes: Oregano is a staple herb in pasta sauces and dishes. It pairs well with tomatoes, garlic and olive oil.

Medicinal Uses:

  1. Antioxidant Properties: Oregano contains compounds such as rosmarinic acid and thymol, which have antioxidant properties. Antioxidants help neutralise free radicals in the body.

  2. Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Some studies suggest that oregano may have anti-inflammatory effects, which could be beneficial for conditions associated with inflammation.

  3. Antibacterial and Antifungal Properties: Oregano has been studied for its potential antibacterial and antifungal properties. It may help combat certain bacteria and fungi.

  4. Respiratory Health: Oregano has traditionally been used to support respiratory health. It may be consumed in teas or infusions to help with symptoms of colds or respiratory infections.

  5. Digestive Aid: Oregano has been used to aid digestion. It may help relieve symptoms of indigestion and bloating.

  6. Menstrual Support: Some cultures use oregano to help manage symptoms associated with menstruation, such as cramps.

  7. Immune System Support: Oregano is believed to have immune-boosting properties. It may be consumed during times of illness to support the immune system.
