Dandelion Root Powder (Taraxacum officinale) is a finely milled root used in warm drinks, decoctions, tinctures, and kitchen recipes. It has an earthy, slightly bitter profile that suits savoury dishes and bitter-leaning cups.

Q: Can I add this to a spice blend? A: Yes, it can add earthy depth to savoury blends, but start small and adjust. Q: How long does it stay fresh after opening? A: Kept sealed, cool, and dry, it maintains quality well. Moisture is the main factor that reduces freshness.
