The plant has flavour also. Oregano is an important culinary herb. It is particularly widely used in Turkish, Greek, Spanish, Dominican and Italian cuisine. It is the leaves that are used in cooking, and the dried herb is often more flavourful than the fresh.
Oregano is available throughout the year. Whenever possible, choose fresh, organic oregano over the dried form of the herb, because it tastes better. The leaves of fresh oregano should look fresh and vibrant green, while the stems should be firm. They should be free from dark spots or yellowing. When purchasing dried oregano, try to buy organically grown, because this will give you more assurance that it has not been irradiated. Oregano is available throughout the year.

Fresher dried herbs will have a stronger flavor and you may be able to use less. Older dried herbs will have a weaker flavor and may require more.
