Description
Marjoram is an aromatic herb - closely related to oregano, it has a slightly more delicate, almost bitter flavour and is generally used fresh, often in Mediterranean cooking. As a fragrance ingredient, it brings a surprisingly spicy facet, with a dry, herbal edge. Marjoram essential oil is obtained through steam distillation of the dried flowering plant.
