Mexican Oregano

Independent shop in DowntownDirections

Available from World Spice Merchants when we last checked, in the last two days. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

A bold, citrusy herb with earthy undertones. Despite its common name, Mexican oregano is not botanically related to Turkish oregano, but has a history and flavor all its own. It’s a cornerstone of Latin American cooking, perfect for salsas, chili, enchiladas, and authentic spice blends. As with all dried herbs, be sure to crumble it to release maximum flavor.
