Latin Name: Origanum Vulgare
Origin Country: Greece
Origanum vulgare, commonly known as oregano, is a perennial herb native to the Mediterranean region and widely used in cooking and traditional medicine. It belongs to the mint family (Lamiaceae) and is valued for its aromatic leaves, which impart a warm, slightly bitter flavor. Oregano is a key ingredient in Mediterranean, Italian, and Mexican cuisines, often used to season tomato-based dishes, meats, and vegetables.
-Oregano is well-known for its ability to fight bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
-The anti-inflammatory properties of oregano can help reduce inflammation in the body, offering relief from conditions like arthritis, asthma, or general inflammatory responses.
-Oregano has been used traditionally to promote healthy digestion.
To make an infusion, place one tablespoon of dried herbs into a ceramic teapot, mug or mason jar for each cup of tea you intend to brew. Cover with boiling water. Place on the lid (or cover your cup with a saucer) and let steep for 10-15 minutes or overnight.
People can also use the leaves dry or fresh to add a “Mediterranean” flavor to a range of dishes. It pairs well with tomato and often features in pizzas and pasta sauces.
Oregano is generally considered safe to use medicinally but possible side effects may include stomach upset. Oregano might also cause an allergic reaction in people who have an allergy to plants in the Lamiaceae family.
