Burdock Root
A slender, brown-skinned root vegetable that grows to more than two feet in length, burdock root, which is often used in Japanese cooking, features a sweet flavour and crunchy texture, similar to lotus root. Burdock root is also well loved for its impressive health benefits including its ability to aid digestion, detoxify the liver, balances hormones, improve skin health, reduction inflammation, as well as lower blood pressure.
