Happy National Licorice Day, everyone!
Licorice is a plant from the
legume family. It originates in both Europe and parts of Asia. The name “licorice”
originates from the Greek term for “sweet root.” It grows best in deep valleys
and well-drained soils. It is harvested in the “autumn, two or three years
after planting.” It is used in various foods, and as a natural herbal medicine.
Fun Licorice Fact: While they have similar flavors
