Don't even think they're very distant cousins. Oregano is that wonderful
fragrant herb used in Greek food and in Herbs de Provence as well. Infact, I
prefer the pungent and distinctive Greek Oregano if you can find it. I recall
Shepherd's has it. The Mexican variety has a greener flavor and is less
refined in my opinion..
Cilantro, Chinese Parsley and all the other names it 8s given is totally
different. Smell and taste of each is terrific.
