Dried Marjoram
Dried marjoram offers a subtle, sweet, and slightly citrusy flavor with hints of pine and oregano. Its aroma is warm and herbaceous, perfect for enhancing dishes without overpowering them. Originating from the Mediterranean, this herb has been prized since ancient times for both its culinary and medicinal properties. Its delicate texture makes it ideal for infusing soups, stews, and roasted meats with a gentle, earthy depth.
Notes
Store dried marjoram in a cool, dark place to preserve its potency. Freshness diminishes over time, so use within a year for best flavor. Crush the leaves before use to release their essential oils.
