A strong licorice flavor used in French cooking. Great for herbal vinegars, sauces, fish and stews. Be careful not to overcook this herb or it can become bitter. Historically used to treat snake bites and ease fatigue, it has a mild anesthetic effect and was once used to treat tooth aches. Host plant for the swallowtail butterfly.
