Description
There is nothing like oregano in a dish as it compliments most meats to provide a sweet flavour and aroma
Unlike Mexican Oregano the Turkish version is not as strong in its citrus aroma, preferring to be sweet and mellow which for some dishes is ideal
The Oregano is also cut and blended to a finer powder texture than the rough cut Mexican version
After all, the point of cooking authentic meals is to try the different flavours of food that the area produces

Turkish Oregano - Quick Reference
What is it?: A robust Mediterranean oregano traditionally used across Turkish and eastern Mediterranean cooking.
Flavour: Warm, savoury and aromatic with peppery, slightly bitter and resinous notes.
Common uses: Kebabs, grilled lamb, tomato sauces, flatbreads, salads, roasted vegetables and marinades.
Pairs well with: Sumac, cumin, mint, garlic, lemon, tomato, lamb and yoghurt.
How to use: Rub lightly between the palms before use, or bloom briefly in warm oil for sauces and dressings.
Compare with: Usually stronger and more assertive than standard supermarket oregano.
Substitute: Greek oregano is the closest substitute, with a similarly direct Mediterranean character.
Storage: Store airtight away from heat and sunlight.
Good to know: Its strength makes it especially useful in fatty meats and tomato-rich dishes where milder herbs can disappear.
