Oregano in Campania: history and gastronomic culture
Oregano has a long history in the gastronomic culture of Campania, where it is considered one of the most symbolic ingredients of Mediterranean cuisine. This aromatic plant, typical of the Mediterranean maquis, grows wild in the hilly and mountainous areas of the region, particularly in the areas of Cilento, the Amalfi coast and the islands, where the warm and dry climate favours its luxuriant growth.
In the Campania region, oregano is appreciated not only for its unmistakable flavour, but also for its beneficial properties. Since ancient times, it has been used not only in cooking, but also as a medicinal plant, for its digestive, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory qualities. Local farmers and families have always valued oregano, harvesting and drying it during the summer months for use throughout the year, thus preserving its intense aroma and flavour.
In the kitchen, oregano is a fundamental ingredient of the Mediterranean diet, and in Campania it is widely used in numerous traditional recipes. One of the most iconic uses of oregano is in pizza marinara, where, together with tomato and garlic, it gives the dish that characteristic herbaceous aroma that enriches and balances the flavours. Similarly, oregano is essential in tomato salads or capresi, where its fresh and strong aroma enhances the sweetness of the tomatoes and the softness of the buffalo mozzarella.
In the rural areas of Campania, oregano is often used to flavour meats, especially roast lamb or rabbit alla cacciatora, rustic dishes that benefit from the aromatic touch of this herb. Even in home-made preserves, such as aubergines in oil or dried tomatoes, oregano is an essential ingredient, as it enriches the taste of preserved vegetables with its unmistakable flavour. Another typical use of oregano is on marinated anchovies or fish dishes, where its aroma perfectly accompanies the freshness of the catch.
In many homes in Campania, dried oregano is kept hanging in bunches, often on view in kitchens, as a symbol of abundance and rootedness in tradition. Oregano festivals, held in various towns in Campania, celebrate this plant and its role in local cuisine, keeping alive an ancient tradition that reflects the strong link between the population and the land.
