Description

Mexican Oregano

Mexican Oregano is an essential spice for Southwest, Mexican, Latin and South American cuisines. It is very full-bodied and has a slightly citrus profile which compliments the complex facets of the Southwest, Mexican and South American dishes. You will find it in meat, soup, stew, bean or egg dishes, throughout these areas.

While they share the same “oregano” name, Mexican Oregano isn’t related to it’s Greek/Mediterranean Oregano cousin. In fact, Marjoram, which is sometimes called French Oregano is related to the Greek/Mediterranean variety. They all share a similar flavor profile, but due to their flavor and scent differences, they aren’t interchangeable in many recipes.

One of our favorite uses for Mexican Oregano is New Mexican Posole, whose characteristic flavor is derived from the oregano…and New Mexican Red Chile Peppers, of course. To check out our Posole Recipe, please click HERE.

Mexican Oregano is also found in many dishes, including outstanding in fajitas, enchiladas, tacos, and in egg and cheese dishes, such as Huevos Rancheros. Add some to olive oil and brush it on grilled foods for Southwest touch. It is also ideal to combine with other spices for a Southwestern salt-free blend.
