Our Dried Marjoram offers a delicate, sweet, and slightly woody flavour with hints of citrus and pine. A classic herb in European cooking, it is milder and sweeter than oregano, making it perfect for seasoning meats, vegetables, soups, and sauces. A sprinkle of marjoram adds a touch of herbal elegance:

Herbal Classics: A key ingredient in fines herbes, bouquet garni, and seasoning for pâtés and terrines. Sausages & Meats: The classic herb for seasoning pork, lamb, and veal sausages, roasts, and grilled meats. Soups & Stews: Adds a warm, comforting note to vegetable soups, bean stews, and tomato-based sauces.

Roasted Vegetables: Sprinkle over roasted potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, or zucchini before cooking. Egg Dishes & Salads: Adds a delicate flavour to omelettes, frittatas, and green salads.

How to Use: For the most flavour, add towards the end of the cooking process or as a finishing herb to preserve its delicate aroma. It pairs beautifully with other herbs like thyme, sage, and bay leaf.

Storage: Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place to protect its colour and delicate flavour.
