Unlike some plants I have in my terrace this Oregano plant
amazes me. It could stand several days without being watered. It could survive
the heat of the sun. I have some of this
plant in pots and put them inside the house. I like the aroma of its leaves. I would gather some leaves put them in small
box or small basket and leave them to dry inside the house. When the leaves are
totally dried out I would put them in the pots of the other plants as
fertilizer. I use the fresh leaves as seasoning for my cooking. I made
sure to gather the fresh and greenish leaves.
How to prepare as seasoning for cooking? Wash them thoroughly in running water. The leaves gather dust easily. They should be cleaned properly. Soak the leaves in water with salt to get rid of some impurities for about ten minutes. Slice the leaves thinly in chopping board. Poured the thinly slice leaves over pork chop or fried chicken for not more than twenty minutes before the cooking is done. I also put these leaves on scrambled eggs, together with onions and tomatoes. Dried Oregano leaves are sold in groceries in bottles or plastic pouches.
