Description: Chickweed Herb C/S is made from the leaves and tender stems of Stellaria media, a low-growing annual herb native to Europe and widely naturalized in temperate regions worldwide. The plant features delicate, bright green leaves and small white star-shaped flowers along sprawling stems. Harvesting is carried out when the plant is fully grown but before flowering to retain optimal colour, texture, and quality.
After harvesting, the plant material is carefully cleaned to remove debris, dirt, and excess stems, then dried using controlled air or low-temperature methods. Once dried, the leaves and stems are cut and sifted to produce a uniform particle size suitable for handling and storage. This process preserves the natural green colour, delicate texture, and botanical identity of the herb while creating a stable, high quality product.
The cut and sifted herb has a lightweight, consistent texture and uniform appearance. The dried pieces maintain their natural structure, colour, and integrity, making the product reliable for measuring, blending, and handling in any application that requires clean, processed leafy material.
Uses: Chickweed Herb C/S is used in culinary applications such as salads, soups, and seasoning blends, where the tender leaves add texture and visual appeal. It is also suitable for botanical crafts, educational herb kits, decorative herb displays, and other applications requiring dried green leaf material. The cut and sifted form allows for easy incorporation into mixes, blends, or displays while maintaining the natural character of the plant.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
