| | Oregano Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Mexican oregano is, for all practical purposes, organoleptically
indistinguishable from the species Origanum vulgare L. or Coleus
ambionica. Thus, the name oregano is a general term applying to
a particular herb flavor, rather than to a particular species of plant.
The part used is the leaves. | | Occurrence | Oregano is found throughout Asia, Europe, and northern Africa. It is cultivated throughout the world, including the United States. | | Uses | Oregano is a spice made from the dried leaves of lippia graveolens, a
perennial of the mint family. there are two strains available. one
strain, common to the mediterranean region, is delicate in fragrance
and taste and the other, which is common to mexico, is quite pun-
gent. it is used in sauces, soups, and pizza. |
