A boldly flavored herb, ground oregano brings a peppery bite and a slightly sweet, minty aroma to your table. It’s per-fect for Italian tomato dishes, Greek salads, and Turkish lamb and chicken kebabs. At McCormick, we carefully select our oregano leaves then gently dry and grind them to produce ground oregano with robust flavor. Use ground oregano when you want the pungent warmth but not the presence of the leaves in dishes like meatloaf, burgers and tomato sauce for pizza or pasta. Ground oregano’s peppery flavor pairs well with a little char from the grill. Try adding it to marinades or rubs for grilled chicken, pork or seafood. A simple vinaigrette of lem-on, olive oil, oregano and garlic livens up salads and summer vegetables.
