Oregano essential oil is the boldest cooking oil in the dōTERRA range, for those who love frank Mediterranean flavours. Distilled from Turkish oregano, it owes its strength to carvacrol, a phenol, which makes it one of the most potent essential oils: a single drop replaces a tablespoon of the dried herb.

In the kitchen, use it sparingly: one drop in a tomato sauce, a pizza sauce or on a roast. Taste before adding more. On the skin, it is diluted generously: its powerful cleansing properties then come into play in local application, and its sharp, herbaceous aroma becomes invigorating during a massage of the soles of the feet. In winter, one drop in the diffuser with Peppermint and Lime revives a room.

A seasoning first, and an oil with character for those who know how to measure it.
