A “cousin” of oregano & one of the main aromatic plants composing the French herbes de Provence blend, marjoram is another Mediterranean staple. One who’s fragrance and flavor change a lot, depending on the varietal and place of origin
Sourcing: Our fragrant selection arrives in small quantities from an organic farm on the island of Crete. It’s harvested by hand, dried naturally and sorted in-house at Daphnis and Chloe.
How to use: Marjoram has a protagonistic role in the culinary tradition of several Greek islands. In the traditional cuisine of Cephalonia, they use it to give a flowery, subtle spiciness to many of their tomato, fish or root vegetable recipes. In nearby Lefkada, it’s a must for lentil soups. Pleasantly intense, Daphnis and Chloe’s marjoram has a flowery and peppery fragrance with hints of citrus.
It also makes a lovely herbal tea.
