Burdock root tea

Burdock (Arctium lappa) is a native to Europe and Asia, and if 
allowed, can grow in almost any uncultivated space. It was used 
by India's traditional Ayurvedics and by the early Chinese for 
its very valuable health properties. In addition to its 
healthful effects, the stalks form a delicate vegetable, similar 
in flavor to asparagus when boiled, and a pleasant salad when 
eaten raw with vinegar. 

        Burdock is greatly cherished 
in the Orient, especially in Japan where it is known as "Gobo" 
and the root is used in everyday cooking. The name is a 
combinition of bur, from its tenacious burrs, and dock, Old 
English referring to its large leaves. And, as its name 
suggests, it is a plant which bears seeds in big round bristly 
cones that stick to clothing and animal fur. Many modern-day 
herbalists continue to use Burdock for its health benefits.
