Sweet, earthy and strongly flavoured with a pervasive aniseed, resinous flavour. Used in desserts, tea infusions or savoury cooking as well as medicines. In China, liquorice is a crucial flavouring for a master stock and adds a distinctive flavour and scent to many savoury dishes. Liquorice also is widely used in European sweets and desserts and is useful infused in sweet syrups, creams or even ice creams. As a general rule, the smaller the particle size, the stronger the flavour as more surface area is exposed and more of the essential oils released.

uses: Add to a stock - especially beef or lamb for a deep, earthy sweetness.
