Uses:
(Pronounced MAR-jur-um)
Resembling mild oregano, the slightly sweet flavor of Melissa’s fresh Marjoram combines easily with eggs, beans, lamb and veal. Popular in risotto and vegetable soups, Marjoram’s fresh flavor works well with tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, zucchini and many cheese dishes. Almost any dish is enhanced by the addition of the oval, inch-long green leaves of Melissa’s Marjoram. The sweet, fresh aroma of Marjoram makes it especially useful in aromatic teas and fragrant sachets.
Selection, Storage & Handling:
Melissa’s Fresh Herbs are hand selected for excellent quality. Choose fresh-looking Marjoram with good color and a clean, fresh scent. Avoid any brown spots or wilted stalks or leaves. Use soon after purchasing. To keep fresh, refrigerate in a plastic bag filled with air and securely closed. Store in the vegetable crisper section of the refrigerator. If leaves do become wilted, an ice water bath can revive them. Place Melissa’s Herbs stem side down in a jar of water (similar to fresh flowers) and cover with a tightly closed plastic bag. Store away from ethylene-producing fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, bananas and peppers
