Description
Size:1 Pound Marshmallow has a long history of use as a culinary and medicinal
plant that spans more than 2,000 years. The ancient Romans considered
marshmallow to be a delicacy, and had a preference for eating the roasted
roots of the plant as a vegetable. In Syria and in other parts of the world
periodically affected by famine, marshmallow is an abundant and life-saving
alternative when traditional crops fail. Because inhabitants may have to
survive on plant sources for food for weeks at a time, marshmallow roots, par-
boiled and then pan-fried in butter with onions, is common fare at such times.
