Krinos Organic Mountain Oregano (56g)
Derived from the Ancient Greek words "oros" (mountain) and "ganos" (joy), oregano has been used as a traditional medicinal herb for thousands of years. The prized oil derived from the oregano plant is still revered in homeopathy today. Rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, oregano has natural antibacterial and antifungal properties known to help ward off colds and flus. Wild Greek oregano is considered by connoisseurs to be the best and most flavorful oregano in the world. Krinos Organic Mountain Oregano is carefully harvested from wild organic plants growing on Mt. Othrys in Central Greece. Because our organic oregano includes both the stems and the leaves, it is perfect for butter or olive oil basting and a great flavor enhancer for roasted vegetable, meat or fish dishes. A mainstay of the healthy Mediterranean Diet, the wonderfully fragrant oregano is the “quintessential” Greek herb.
