@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.

The mint family is one of the larger families with 236 genera and over 7000 species it contains most of our culinary herbs such as #rosemary (Rosmarinus) #thyme (Thymus) #mint (Mentha) #oregano (Origanum), savory (Satureja), #basil (Ocimum) #lemon #balm (Melissa), #shiso (Perilla) #sage (Salvia). 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.

My efforts to keep oregano contained failed and now I have an oregano lawn. #culinaryherbs #gardenfailure #oregano #quiltlovinlisa

More mementos from the garden, this time a June bug (Cotinis nitida) on my cardoon and a Carniolan honey bee (Apis mellifera carnica) on oregano. All below shot using a full-frame prime Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM at various apertures between f/2-3.5.
Some mementos from the garden today. Who said one can't do detail photography with an ultra-wide lens? All below shot handheld, using an ultra-wide full-frame prime (Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 STM) at fully open aperture.
I'm a good kind of tired today. #Gardening #Zone5 #SouthernVermont #Oregano #Chives #Kale #Mesclun #BrusselsSprouts
Americans Say Oregano. Now say Oregon. Now say Oregano again. You're welcome.
@metacat I will be establishing a green roof in the next few weeks. I plan for thyme and oregano to be part of this, lots of cuttings taken #thyme #Oregano #Greenroofs
