{"product_id":"vichio-i-toysilagko-apoxirameno","title":"Coltsfoot – Tussilago (Tussilago farfara)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColtsfoot – Tussilago – Tussilago farfara\u003c\/strong\u003e consists of dried plant parts with a mild, dry, grassy character. At Spices Bazaar, it is presented as an authentic botanical raw material, with an emphasis on correct botanical identity, form, and responsible use. Natural differences in color, cut, and aroma from batch to batch are to be expected with dried plants and do not, by themselves, indicate a change in quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eColtsfoot – Tussilago – botanical identity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe name \u003cem\u003eTussilago farfara\u003c\/em\u003e helps distinguish this product from other plants with similar common names. Identification is especially important when the product has been dried and cut, since different species can look alike. We do not assume a specific country of origin, chemical composition, or variety unless this is documented in the information for the specific batch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eForm, aroma, and natural variations\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe product has a mild, dry, grassy profile. Drying reduces moisture and makes the plant material more brittle, so it is normal to find smaller pieces or a little plant powder at the bottom. The strength of the aroma is affected by the harvest, the age of the raw material, the cut, and storage. Keep the packaging closed and always use a dry utensil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eUse and practical information\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe name coltsfoot has historically been associated with traditional uses, but this is not proof that it treats coughs or respiratory conditions. Tussilago farfara may contain pyrrolizidine alkaloids, so internal use requires particular caution and batch documentation. Loose dried raw material is not equivalent to a standardized extract, essential oil, or supplement. For this reason, we do not copy dosages or claims from different forms of the same plant. If specific use instructions are provided for the batch, they take precedence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to assess a dried herb\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGood handling starts with clear identification and proper storage. We do not judge an herb solely by how green, aromatic, or uniform it looks. Some plants naturally darken after drying, while others lose some of their aroma when cut very finely. For repeated preparations, it is useful to keep notes on the batch and the amount used.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRelated product in the catalog\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor comparison with a different botanical raw material, see \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/mporagko-mpoyrantza-borago-officinalis\"\u003eBorage – Starflower\u003c\/a\u003e. The related product is not a substitute: the botanical identity, plant part used, and precautions differ. This distinction is especially useful when creating botanical blends or organizing a professional stockroom with many similar raw materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eA little Spices Bazaar secret\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you transfer the product to a jar, do not discard the original label. Write down at least the full name and batch number, and do not mix old stock with a new delivery. This makes it easy to check which raw material was used and maintain greater consistency in every subsequent preparation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStorage and precautions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore tightly sealed in a cool, dry, dark place, away from moisture, steam, and strong odors. Prolonged or uncontrolled internal use of untested material is not recommended. Avoid use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and in cases of liver disease.
