Country of Origin: Mexico
Common Name: Epazote Herb
English Name: Epazote Herb Cut & Sifted
French Name: Épazote Coupée et Tamisée
Also Known As: Mexican Tea Herb, Dysphania ambrosioides Herb, Chenopodium ambrosioides Herb
Part Used: Dried leaves and tender stems of Dysphania ambrosioides
Description: Epazote Herb C/S is prepared from the leaves and young stems of Dysphania ambrosioides, an aromatic annual herb native to Central America and now cultivated in warm regions around the world. The plant features elongated, serrated green leaves and slender stems, which are harvested during the active growing season when the foliage is well developed.
After harvest, the plant material is cleaned to remove soil, coarse stems, and field debris. The leaves and tender stems are then dried using controlled low-temperature air-drying methods to reduce moisture while preserving the natural deep green colour and characteristic leaf structure.
Once fully dried, the herb is cut and sifted into uniform pieces. The finished product contains flat leaf fragments and small stem sections with consistent size and texture, providing a clean and stable botanical ingredient suitable for blending, storage, and applications.
Uses: Epazote Herb C/S is used in culinary seasoning blends, traditional food preparations, spice mixes, tea-style infusions, and herbal beverage blends. It is also suitable for botanical craft projects, educational herb kits, decorative herb jars, and creative applications where dried leafy herb material is desired for colour, texture, and botanical presentation.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in an airtight container. Refrigeration not required.
