Hyssop Dried Herb Tea ( Hyssopus Oeficinalis L ) (500g)

Description

• Dried hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis) is a versatile aromatic herb from the mint family, traditionally used for its minty, camphor-like aroma and slightly bitter floral flavour. It is primarily used in herbal teas for respiratory support and as a unique seasoning in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines.

Health Benefits & Traditional Uses Hyssop has a long history of use in folk medicine, particularly for the respiratory and digestive systems. Respiratory Support: It contains marrubiin, an expectorant that helps loosen mucus, and is traditionally used to treat coughs, colds, bronchitis, and asthma. Digestive Aid: The herb's bitter properties act as a digestive tonic, helping to relieve bloating, wind, and sluggish digestion. Topical Application: When made into a poultice, it can be applied to cuts and bruises to reduce inflammation and speed up healing. Aromatherapy & Cleansing: Known for its "spiritual cleansing" properties, it is used in ritual practices and as a fragrance in soaps and perfumes. Culinary Applications Because of its intense flavour, dried hyssop should be used sparingly. Savory Dishes: It pairs well with oily fish, meats (especially lamb), and rich stews to aid digestion. Seasoning: It is a component of the Zaatar herb blend and can be sprinkled over roasted vegetables, mixed into herb butters, or used in stuffings. Sweets & Beverages: Dried hyssop can be infused into custards, syrups, and fruit dishes (like poached peaches) or used to flavour liqueurs like Chartreuse. Herbal Tea: Steep 12 teaspoons of the dried herb in boiling water for 515 minutes. It is often sweetened with honey to balance its natural bitterness.
