Marjoram+ 5 ml - Young Living Essential Essence

Discover the mild spiciness of marjoram for Mediterranean delicacies

Young Living's Marjoram+ essential oil is steam-distilled from the leaves of the Origanum majorana plant and offers a mild, spicy flavor. This 100% pure essential oil from the Plus line is especially popular in Mediterranean countries like Italy and is the perfect complement to fish, chicken, soups, and vegetable dishes.

What makes Marjoram+ so special?

Marjoram has a similar flavor to oregano, but it's milder and sweeter. While oregano is strong and intense, marjoram offers a gentler, warmer note that's perfect for more delicate dishes. Marjoram+ is highly concentrated – a single drop replaces a teaspoon of fresh marjoram and adds an authentic Mediterranean flavor to your dishes.

Your most important advantages at a glance:

• Mild flavor: Sweeter and gentler than oregano, perfect for delicate dishes
• Highly concentrated: 1 drop replaces 1 teaspoon of fresh marjoram
• Mediterranean tradition: A classic herb of Italian and Greek cuisine
• Versatile use: For fish, poultry, soups, vegetables and more
• 100% pure: Seed to Seal quality without additives

Here's how to use Marjoram+:

Dosage – important!
In your favorite recipes, replace 1 teaspoon of fresh marjoram with 1 drop of Marjoram+. If a lower concentration is called for, dip a toothpick into the Marjoram+ bottle and stir it through your wet ingredients – this way you can measure it perfectly!

For flavored oils:
Enrich a bottle of extra virgin olive oil with 1 drop of Marjoram+ to enhance salad dressings, marinades, and dips. This flavored oil is also perfect for drizzling over pasta, pizza, or toasted bread.

In the kitchen – Marjoram+ is ideal for:

• Fish dishes: White fish, salmon, trout, seafood or fish soups
• Poultry dishes: chicken, turkey, duck – especially in braised dishes
• Soups & Stews: Vegetable soups, chicken soup, bean stew, lentil soup
• Vegetable dishes: Roasted vegetables, vegetable stir-fries, ratatouille, stuffed peppers

Add 1-2 drops to a fruit or vegetable smoothie for a surprising, spicy note. Marjoram+ goes particularly well with green smoothies containing spinach, cucumber, or celery.

Marjoram vs. Oregano – What is the difference?

Although both belong to the same plant family, they have different taste profiles:

• Marjoram: Milder, sweeter, warmer – ideal for delicate dishes, fish and poultry
• Oregano: Stronger, more intense, more peppery – perfect for pizza, pasta and savory dishes

Why Marjoram+ instead of fresh or dried marjoram?

Marjoram essential oil is highly concentrated and offers a more intense, purer aroma than dried herbs. A single drop replaces one teaspoon of fresh marjoram. You always have fresh marjoram flavor at hand without the herbs wilting or losing their aroma. The oil also dissolves more easily in sauces and dressings.

Marjoram+ harmonizes wonderfully with other Young Living Plus oils:

• With Thyme+ for Mediterranean herb blends
• With Rosemary+ for meat and potatoes
• With Basil+ for Italian tomato dishes
• With Lemon+ for fish and seafood
• With Black Pepper+ (if available) for spicy marinades

Application tips for optimal results:

• Dosage: Start with 1 drop or use the toothpick method.
• Mixing: First stir Marjoram+ with oil or liquid.
• Timing: Add marjoram+ towards the end of the cooking time to preserve the full aroma.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dark place for maximum shelf life
