Marjoram (Origanum majorana) is a cold-sensitive perennial herb or undershrub known for its sweet pine and citrus flavours. In some Middle Eastern countries, marjoram is synonymous with oregano, with the names sweet marjoram and knotted marjoram used to distinguish it from other plants in the Origanum genus. This aromatic herb is prized for its delicate, slightly sweet taste and is often used to enhance soups, stews, sauces, and meat dishes, bringing a subtle yet distinctive flavour to various culinary creations.
