General Information:
Sheep sorrel plant introduced from Europe and now widely distributed in North America. Sorrel is a name applied to several unrelated plants having in their leaves an acid sap that gives them a sour flavor. It is a low perennial, sprouting from slender running rootstocks, and has red pigment in root, inflorescences, and often in leaves, which are halberd to linear-shaped. The plants are one-sexed and either pollen or seed-bearing. It is a little plant of a far more delicate, even dainty character, growing abundantly in woods and shady places. From its slender, irregular creeping rootstock covered with red scales, it sends up thin delicate leaves, each composed of three heart-shaped leaflets, a beautiful, bright green above, but of a purplish hue on their under surface. If roots are planted in a moist, shady border, they will multiply freely, and if kept clean from weeds will thrive and need no other care.
How to use:
Hot Infusion:
The basic method for dried herbs and flower is, take 2-3 tablespoons of dried herb in a cup or teapot. Pour hot water over it and cover it with lid for 10-30 minutes. Hot water is needed to draw out the antioxidants, enzymes, vitamins, flavonoids, and volatile oils from the botanicals. Strain and squeeze out as much as liquid as possible and enjoy!
Tips:
