The excellence of Sicilian oregano
The production and sale of Sicilian organic oregano has remained the company flagship. The product is grown in Sicily and appreciated for its aromatic qualities that increase after drying. The smell and taste are particularly pleasant and also retain a balsamic note.
The aroma and properties of oregano
The oregano from Bioagricola Bosco is extremely valuable and of the highest quality. The plant knows how to stand out for its very intense aroma that enhances the textures and flavours of the raw ingredients. From a nutritional point of view, the spice fights intestinal fermentation and stimulates appetite.
The origano vulgaris species heracleodicum
Organic oregano is a fundamental condiment of Mediterranean cuisine for the preparation of pizza, pasta, meat, fish and eggs. It is also used to flavour some types of beer. Oregano contains fats, carbohydrates, fibre and water proteins. The most relevant minerals are potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron and zinc. Harvest begins in June when it is in bloom. It is subsequently hung upside down to dry in dark, well-ventilated places. When a bunch is completely dried, the team works it by hand to take only the flowers and leaves (and eliminate the stems and any impurities). The sale of oregano is appreciated for the product with a strong percentage of essential oils also due to the hilly land on which the crop stands.
Healing properties of oregano
Organic oregano also has several therapeutic properties that make it a powerful natural antibiotic. The plant is also important for its numerous therapeutic properties: antiseptic, analgesic, antispasmodic, expectorant and tonic. It has adjuvant qualities in the digestive process, is a cough suppressant, reduces intestinal and menstrual pain and is a real tonic for the nervous system. Oregano promotes digestion by stimulating salivary and gastric secretions, has a beneficial action in cases of meteorism and helps expel gases from the intestine. Its essential oil is widely used in aromatherapy.
Cultivating and selling organic flavours
The company was born in the cultivation and sale of organic Sicilian oregano - a production known for its aromatic qualities, enhanced at the end of drying, that are particularly pleasant on the palate. The oregano of Sicily is a fundamental condiment in Mediterranean cuisine used in the preparation of pizza, pasta, meat, fish and eggs.
Sicilian oregano in the kitchen
Sicilian oregano is collected in June when it looks like a flower. Its nature is also benevolent for natural antibiotic therapies for cough, cold and menstrual pain. Furthermore, the staff at the Bioagricola follows several courses to be constantly updated on the new methods of organic cultivation. A guarantee for all our customers.
