#oregano

@Giselle it’s soooo easy. For the herbs I am pretty happy with most #Italian herb mixes: #oregano #basil #thyme and sometimes I like to add #rosemary - I just make it up, but usually 2 parts oregano and one part the others. This marinara also makes great #pizza sauce if you reduce it down a bit more.

I start with a low heat. Just enough to gently sizzle the garlic for 15-30 seconds so it starts to get aromatic. Too much and the garlic goes bitter.

It is also home to Chia (Salvia hispanica) made from the seeds, Chinese artichoke (Stacys affinis) and the Kaffir potato (Coleus esculentus), both forms of edible tuber.
