About Italian oregano

Italian oregano, a staple herb in Mediterranean cuisine, boasts a robust and earthy flavor that enhances a wide range of dishes, from pasta sauces and pizzas to roasted vegetables and meats. Native to the sunny hills of Italy and surrounding regions, this aromatic herb belongs to the mint family and is revered for both its culinary and medicinal qualities. Rich in antioxidants, Italian oregano contains vitamins A and K, along with essential minerals like iron and manganese. It also possesses antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a powerful addition to a balanced diet. Low in calories but high in flavor, oregano can support digestive health and boost immune function when consumed in moderation. While fresh oregano is nutrient-dense, dried oregano offers concentrated benefits, making it a versatile spice cabinet favorite. However, individuals should be mindful of sodium levels when using oregano-based seasoning blends.
