I love the way oregano looks after a frost.

Oregano is considered a staple herb in many cuisines around the world. From helping fight bacteria to reducing inflammation, studies have unearthed some of its impressive potential benefits.

Oregano has a strong flavor, warmth to dishes, and a hint of subtle sweetness. It can be found fresh, dried, or as an oil, and all have significant health benefits.

Though typically used in small amounts, oregano packs in some important nutrients. One teaspoon of dried oregano can fulfill about 8% of your daily vitamin K needs (1).

Oregano is rich in antioxidants, which are compounds that help fight damage from harmful free radicals in the body.
