Burdock Root is originally from Europe and Asia, and is now grown worldwide. The root is part of a perennial plant that grows in temperate environments. This root comes from a plant that has long, large leaves and purple flowers. Burdock Root has an elongated, thin shape that can vary in sizes and is physically very similar to a carrot. The skin of the root is light brown and its inside is pale, with a crunchy and rubbery texture. Its taste is described as mild, sweet, earthy, and slightly bitter. The Ojibwe people from Southern Canada and Northern Midwestern United States used this root as a medicinal plant as they believed it was restorative for their body and soul.

 

Brew Burdock Root in near-boiling water to make tea. Use 1 teaspoon with 2 cups of hot water. Steep for 5 - 10 minutes. Can be served chilled or hot. Add honey and enjoy!
