Marjoram

Marjoram has an oregano-like flavor that is milder and sweeter than oregano.  It goes well with thyme, bay leaves and black pepper.  Used in cosmetics, dyes, soaps, and perfumes. 

Suggested uses: the flavor of marjoram is great with red meats, with fish, chicken, seasonal veggies and eggs or cheese dishes.
