Marjoram

It is a type of cold sensitive herb, grown perennially. It is a green colored under shrub , showing oval, inch-long (2.5cm), pale green leaves, which have a delicate, sweet flavor. It tastes a combination of sweet, pine and citrus flavor. It is cultivated for its pleasant aroma somewhere between oregano and thyme. Hence it is used primarily as a herb. Its delicate flavor is destroyed by heat, so it is best added just before the dish is ready to serve, or used in lightly cooked dishes.
