Wild Crafted Chamomile Flower Powder ~ 100% Premium
Botanical name: Matricaria Chamomilla
German chamomile has a long history of use that dates back to ancient Egypt, where the plant was dedicated to Ra, the god of the sun, ruler of the heavens and patron to the pharaohs. During the Middle Ages, chamomile was commonly grown as a kitchen herb and sweet-smelling groundcover to help mask the consequences of poor sanitation at the time. Similarly, chamomile was a popular strewing herb that was scattered on the floorboards of homes, churches and other public places.
Powdered chamomile is easily incorporated into foods and cosmetics. It can be mixed with honey and added to hot teas, or it can be made into a simple syrup. Combined with melted shea butter and beeswax, chamomile powder lends its restorative qualities to lip balms. Chamomile powder can also be blended with a carrier oil for use in massage and aromatherapy.
Its flavor is pleasant and mild. Pairs well with poultry, mild fish, apples, pears, vanilla, parsley, peppermint, lavender and black pepper.
