"This is my second order for your oregano and
I would like to say that it is the "BEST" I have ever used. It is better,
much better, than my own home grown oregano. I want to thank you people for
a superior product that I absolutely love and so do the friends I share it
with...God Bless"

- Melt the butter in a saucepan, add the shallot and cook over a low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes.
