Oregano has been considered one of the most effective and beneficial essential oils for centuries. It can be found in countless cookbooks and spice sets worldwide, as its rich flavor perfectly complements the cuisine of many nations. The essential oil is extracted from the fragrant leaves of the plant. The primary chemical component of oregano essential oil is a phenol derivative, carvacrol, and this makes it one of the world's most versatile and powerful essential oils. When applied to the skin, oregano essential oil should be diluted with a carrier oil.

Primary Benefits

  • A versatile food seasoning, used widely – primarily in its dried form – to flavor savory dishes.
  • Imparts an incredibly intense aroma and flavor to food, meaning even a single drop is enough to achieve an amazing effect.
  • Its spicy, herbaceous aroma also makes it ideal for flavoring soups, salads, and savory dishes.

Cooking with Oregano Essential Oil

The potency of essential oils is much more intense than that of dried herbs or other flavorings, so even in the smallest quantities, they can impart a stunning flavor to dishes. Therefore, when using oregano essential oil in cooking, it's best to use the "toothpick method": dip the tip of a clean toothpick into the oil bottle, then stir it into the other ingredients. After thoroughly mixing it into the food, taste it to see if more oil is needed.

Uses

  • When preparing Italian dishes, use one drop of oregano essential oil instead of a teaspoon of dried oregano.
  • Use one drop of oil in spaghetti or pizza sauces, or with roasts, instead of crumbled oregano.

Directions for Use

For food flavoring.

Cautions

Use diluted only. Do not take more than one drop per day. Keep out of reach of children. If you are pregnant or under medical care, consult your doctor. Avoid contact with eyes, inner ear, face, sensitive areas, and mucous membranes. When applied to the skin, dilute heavily with a carrier oil.

Sourcing

In Turkey, oregano grows wild, as the temperate climate of Western and Southwestern Eurasia and the Mediterranean region is very favorable for it.
