Marjoram Sauce

makes about 1 cup

Marjoram is related to oregano, but has a more subtle flavor. If you kept a container of marjoram growing indoors, take advantage of it in early spring.

7 Tbsp. fresh marjoram, chopped
1 tsp. Aleppo pepper
4 garlic cloves, mashed to a paste
Zest of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper to taste
3/4 cup olive oil

Mix together the marjoram, pepper, garlic, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Slowly whisk the olive oil into this mixture. Serve over scrambled spring eggs or roasted veggies and garnish with additional pepper.
