lol, then why did you put it in quotes? italian for one Mostly when I cook Italian food. oregano is great when making pasta sauce,on roast meats,and on salads,like a nice Greek salad... why is 'oregano' in quotation marks? do you actually mean oregano, or another word for "oregano"? hmm? I use it on menudo, the breakfast of champions. I take a pinch between my palms and grind it over the bowl. I use it in my sauce when I'm making spaghetti or any kind of pasta. You can also use it on chicken. Theres other dishes too. when i make roast duck or chicken, pizza, pasta, lasagna, many other dishes as well. Mexican, Italian, Mediterranean and other. The best oregano is grown in Greece. I use it in many recipes such as, tomato sauce, meatballs, roast lamb, lamb chops, fried or grilled fish, salad dressing, and of course, pizza. I have used it primarily in Italian cooking -- in both red and white sauces, garlic and oil-based sauces, and also as an addition to the cheese mixture I use for manicotti or lasagna dishes. I also use it when I feel like having Italian-style roast beef. I tend to use more basil than oregano, but I do like them both.

BB,
Raji the Green Witch once in a while afterall yes i do eat mcdonalds fast food all day everyday I like it in Mediterranean foods. Anything that has a tomato base (or olive oil) is enhanced with oregano. If oregano is not available, then marjoram is also suitable. spaghetti sauce. flavoring for savory sauces, for seasoning a chicken with other spices and herbs. It is great with basil. Yes, I use it on baked chicken, in pizza and spaghetti sauce, and even put a dash of it in some mexican salsas I make.
