“QUICK ROOT DECOCTION:” AN EXCERPT OF ENCHANTED FORAGING: WILDCRAFTING FOR REMEDIES, RITUALS, AND A MAGICAL LIFE BY EBONY GHEORGHE
This recipe will show you a simple way to extract [roots’] medicinal benefits to use internally or externally. It produces a bittering and digestive stimulating mixture; however, feel free to add more berries or dried barks, such as willow (Salix spp.), for a pain-relieving tea, or slippery elm (Ulmus rubra) for a soothing acid reflux–reducing and digestive tea….
3 tbsp (30 g) dried berries of choice (optional)
1 ¾ oz (50 g) dried burdock root
1 ¾ oz (50 g) dried dandelion root
1 2/3 cups (400 ml) water
Medium-size pot
Strainer
Combine all the ingredients in your pot, including the water. Heat until it starts to boil, then allow to simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes. For a stronger infusion, simmer for a few more minutes but top up the water, if needed. When finished, turn off the heat and let cool. You should be left with a consistency of a very strong tea. Once cooled, strain and store in the fridge. Decoctions can be used as a tea, in syrup recipes, or for skin care.
