Botanical name: Origanum majorana L.
Other name: sweet marjoram and knotted marjoram
Following harvest, the superior attributes of marjoram are concentrated and subsequently transformed into marjoram powder, characterized by its green/silver hue. Marjoram possesses a subtly spicy aroma and a sweet flavor with hints of mint. When dried, marjoram intensifies in flavor compared to its fresh counterpart. While related to oregano (wild marjoram), marjoram distinguishes itself with a milder and sweeter taste. It serves as a crucial component in well-known herb blends like Bouquet Garni, Fine Herbs, and Herbes de Provence.
