What it is

Oregano is a perennial herb in the mint family, native to the Mediterranean region. It is typically dried for use in food, which concentrates its flavor and aroma.

Why it's used

Dried oregano is primarily used as a flavoring agent in savory dishes. Its pungent, slightly bitter taste complements a wide range of foods, especially Italian and Mexican cuisines.

Health notes

Oregano is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a food ingredient. It contains various compounds, including antioxidants, though research on specific health effects from typical dietary intake is ongoing. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated oregano, but no specific numeric limits have been set for its use as a flavoring.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Oregano is a herb and does not contain gluten.
