From Roots to Drops Licorice Flavor and Uses Explored
Licorice comes from the perennial licorice plant in the Leguminosae family native to southern Europe and Asia. It is cultivated in Spain, Italy, Iraq, Russia and Turkey, with much imported to the United States. Roots are boiled to extract juice, concentrated, flavored, and used in candies, medicines, tobaccos, and even fireproof materials. The plant requires three years to yield, and its fibers yield cardboard and insulating products.
