A couple of weeks ago I did a video and post on growing your own antibacterial bandages (Woolly Lamb's Ear), and also went on about some of the other health and medicinal benefits it has. At the time of making that post, I had not yet tried it as a tea but shortly after made it a point to do so and was very pleased with the flavor. The taste is mild enough to blend well with any spice or herb. Last night, I just added a bit of homemade vanilla extract and it was very good. So I was happy to have another way to use this great and plentiful herb that I grow.
Ever since my first taste of the tea, I have been dehydrating a bunch for making more teas through the year. The velvety, absorbent leaves actually dehydrate more quickly than most herbs I dry but because of their thick, fuzzy texture, they seem to stay the same size even once they are fully dry unlike other herbs that get reduced to half or quarter of their original size.
If you would like to learn a bit more about the benefits of Woolly Lamb's Ear, you can check out my original post here:
