"Loved and hated for its intense and divisive flavor, licorice, scientifically known as Glycyrrhizaglabra, is a plant with literally ancient roots."

Evidence of its use dates back more than 5,000years in China, where it was mentioned in the first known Chinese herbal compendium. In Asia, licorice was long regarded as a precious gift of nature, used in traditional medicineto treat coughs, liver disorders, and even food poisoning.

However, its valueis not confined to Eastern pharmacology: ancient civilizations of the Near East, such as the Assyrians, also recognized its beneficial properties.

Egypt, Greece, and ancient Rome made extensive use of it, so much so that fragments of its root are said to have been found in Tutankhamun’s tomb, as evidence of its cultural and therapeutic significance.

For centuries, licorice was primarily considered a medicinal plant.

Only in moderntimes, thanks to its natural sweetness and unique flavor, has it gained a prominentrole in the culinary world, becoming a popular ingredient in candies, beverages, and baked goods.
