What to do with marjoram leaves?

[Karen L. Dapper]

Now that I know what to do with all the leaves on my mint plants, what
can I do with the leaves on my marjoram plant - to tell you the truth I
don't remember ever using a receipe that called for it.

thanks in advance!

Make an omelette with fresh tomatoes, basil, and marjoram.

Put marjoram in Hollandaise sauce to make a form of Bernaise.

Marjoram is a fragrant and delicate herb, similar in some ways to
oregano but much milder. It's one of my favorite herbs to use with
filet of sole, for example.

I've posted the recipe for steamed fish fillets served with fresh
herb sauce in the past, but sole and fresh marjoram sauce would be
a natural. If you don't have the recipe on file, it calls for
steaming the fish in a little white wine for 2 - 3 minutes per side,
then serving with a puree of fresh herbs of your choice that have
been blended with a dash of water, some extra-virgin olive oil,
and a little salt and pepper. With sole, I'd probably do it
meuniere (dredged in flour and sauteed in butter), just because
it's so good that way and it's such a delicate fish. Other fish
that would taste good this way would be catfish, halibut, scallops,
or possibly monkfish.

I haven't used fresh marjoram, but dried marjoram is my
herb of choice in an oil and vinegar salad dressing. I'd
think fresh would be even better.
