Fresh Oregano

Bold, aromatic, and made for savory cooking.

Fresh oregano from Hollow Trace Market Farm brings an earthy, peppery flavor with a gentle bitterness that works beautifully in Greek, Italian, Mexican, and Mediterranean-inspired dishes.

What makes it special

Fresh oregano is lively and herbaceous, with a softer edge than the dried version. The leaves can be added during cooking to season a sauce or marinade, or scattered over a finished dish for a brighter herbal note.

Strip the leaves from the stems and chop only what you need. The flavor is concentrated, so even a small amount can carry through an entire recipe.

How to use it

• Add to tomato sauce, pizza, pasta, or roasted tomatoes

• Mix into marinades for chicken, beef, pork, or vegetables

• Sprinkle over Greek salads, feta, olives, or roasted potatoes

• Stir into beans, soups, chili, or taco fillings

• Blend with olive oil, lemon, and garlic for a quick dressing

• Dry any extra for the pantry
