Sicilian oregano – 10g

Oregano is a perennial, evergreen species, spontaneous in the sunny areas of Etna, which impart a wealth of essential oils (Thymol, Carvacrol). The stem, including flowers and leaves, is harvested by hand in the hot summer months. The bundles are dried naturally under shady conditions. Reaching the right degree of drying, the flowers and leaves are hulled and chopped. Because of its intense fragrance and strong stem, oregano is very versatile in cooking. Excellent on pizza, bruschetta, soups, pasta and main courses of meat and fish.
