Title

Aromatic Stamp-Origanum, Thematic Issue

Description

Oregano is a common specie of the Origamun dubium and belongs to the mint family of herbs. It is a perennial herb growing 20-80cm tall with 3-4mm long purple flowers that are produced in erect spikes. Sometimes it is called wild marjoram. The popular Origanum vulgare is found in commercially sold spices.

The herb brings savouriness to many cuisines and has been in use since the dawn of the human race. It is more flavourful when dried than fresh. It is also aromatic and warm and leaves a slightly bitter taste in the mouth. It can be drunk as tea for the treatment of gastrointestinal upsets and for respiratory track problems.
