The earliest documentation of Oregano use was by the Greeks in Ancient Times, specifically by the renowned Goddess, Aphrodite. She used the beautiful, flowering-herb as a symbol of joy that brightened up her garden. During this time, married couples were given crowns made of garland as a blessing of future happiness and good fortune. Other Eastern cultures in China and Italy adopted Oregano soon after.
The Romans were the first to make great use of Oregano in culinary practices, creating popular dishes that have become traditionally served on a global level. Pizza, pasta, meatballs and parmesan dishes all use Oregano to enhance the flavor of the Marinara Sauce and offer a spicy balance.
