Burdock Root (Arctium lappa) is an earthy, mildly sweet root traditionally used in herbal preparations and cooking. Our cut & sifted Burdock Root is sold by the ounce, making it easy to buy just enough for tea, herbal blends, soups, or your favorite recipes.
Burdock root is naturally very fibrous. You may notice soft, stringy, or cotton-like pieces mixed with the woodier pieces of root. This is a normal part of the burdock root, not a sign of poor quality.
