Marjoram (Origanum majorana) is a herb of the same family of oregano, with similar (milder) taste. Use it fresh in salads or to add flavor to mild meals; or dried for marinades and sauces. You can buy it dried in jars. Marjoram oil has medicinal properties, but shouldn't be used for children or pregnant women.
