Botanical Name: Cichorium intybus
Country of Origin: Spain
English Name: Chicory Root
Hindi Name: Kasni Ki Jadh
Ayurvedic Name: Kasni
Also Known As: Chicory Root Cut & Sifted, Cichorium intybus Root, Dried Chicory Root, Chicory Root C/S
Part Used: Dried root of Cichorium intybus
Description: Chicory Root C/S is made from the roots of Cichorium intybus, a perennial herb native to Europe and widely cultivated in temperate regions worldwide. The plant grows up to 1 meter tall and produces bright green leaves with small blue flowers. The roots are harvested at full maturity to ensure optimal size, density, and natural composition. Harvesting is followed by thorough cleaning to remove soil and other impurities.
After cleaning, the roots are carefully dried using controlled air or low-temperature methods to preserve their natural colour, texture, and structural integrity. Once dried, the roots are cut and sifted to produce uniform pieces suitable for handling, blending, and storage. The cut and sifted format ensures consistency in size and appearance, making the product a stable and versatile botanical ingredient.
The dried, cut roots maintain their natural brown to light tan colour, firm texture, and woody appearance. The processed form preserves the root’s botanical identity while allowing easy incorporation into various applications requiring uniform root pieces.
Uses: Chicory Root C/S is used in culinary applications such as beverages, herbal blends, and functional food preparations where dried root pieces are desired. It is also suitable for botanical craft projects, educational herb kits, decorative displays, and other applications requiring uniform, cut root material.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
