Frontier Bulk Spices—Marjoram

-by Katharine Holden

Marjoram, cousin to oregano, is an aromatic herb used in many cuisines. Traditionally, marjoram has been used in tonics as a stimulant and in first-aid tinctures for its supposed anti-fungal qualities. The plant itself is ornamental in a garden or window box. You’ll find dried marjoram in the bulk spice area.
