Title
Aromatic Stamp-Origanum, Miniature Sheet, Thematic Issue
Description
Centuries ago, the Greeks and the Romans understood the magic of this herb. Hippocrates, (c460-377 BC) father of medicine, used it as an antiseptic and today, in Greece, it is used as a palliative for a soar throat. Greek oregano has a deeper more complicated flavour than other varieties.
At wedding ceremonies they made crowns of oregano for young couples to ward off sources that brought sadness.
Oregano became popular after the wars of the 20th century when soldiers returned home having acquired a taste for the pizza herb.
