Raw dandelion root has an earthy, mildly bitter profile and a firm texture that softens when simmered. It is a classic ingredient in traditional root decoctions, offering depth and grounding character to blends.
The roots are harvested in the fall when the plant draws energy downward, then sliced and dried. This creates a sturdy, aromatic root that pairs well with spices, bark, and other earthy botanicals. Its natural bitterness makes it a staple in herbal preparations centered around roots and earthy flavors.
Simmer as a decoction, add to root based tea blends, or combine with roasted versions for a fuller brew. Can also be used in tincture making. For Tea: 10-20 mins, 200°F, 1-2 tsp roasted root per 8 oz water
