Oregano (Origanum vulgare) is a perennial herb belonging to the mint family, Lamiaceae. It is native to the Mediterranean region and is now widely cultivated and sourced from countries such as Italy, Greece, Turkey, and Mexico. Oregano is known for its strong, aromatic flavor and is a popular ingredient in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Mexican cuisines. It is also commonly used in traditional medicine and is believed to have various health benefits.
Production of oregano typically involves dry farming or cultivation in poor soils to enhance its flavor and aroma. The herb is usually harvested before it flowers, as the leaves have the highest concentration of essential oils at this stage. The plants are dried in a well-ventilated area for several days to preserve their flavor and aroma.
Oregano is also available in the form of essential oil, which is extracted from the leaves and flowers of the plant through steam distillation. The essential oil is used in various industries, such as food and beverage, cosmetics, and aromatherapy.
