2oz Dried Cut Epazote Leaves, Hojas de Epazote Cortadas by 1400s Spices

Arrived super fast, nice packaging. Haven't used just yet, but I'm sure they're top quality

Fresh and great flavor.

The package IS short weight. The "2-ounce" package had only 1.65 oz epazote in it. But, it really is almost only leaves, not stems. Some people say epazote stems are edible in food. But I've found that even after cooking for half an hour in a pressure cooker, they're tough. So I pick out the bigger stems by hand, and then rub the rest through a sieve. That takes a long long time, if it's full of sticks! For this epazote, I weighed the stems and what didn't go through the sieve, and the total in the "2-ounce" package was only 2.31 grams = 0.08 oz. So, there was 1.57 oz of usable epazote in the package. Using this info one can compare the price and quality of different brands of epazote. The stated price per ounce for this epazote should be multiplied by 2.0/1.57 = 1.27, in order to compare with other brands. Many other brands are about 1/2 stems by weight.

Adds delicious flavor, but this does make me sleepy after a meal. Has sedative quality.

When you open the package the epazotr is in it smells so good. I used it to make my refried beans, it gives them a different and very nice flavor. Watch how much you use experiment with a little and work up until it tastes good to you.

I lived in the Yucatán and miss that special taste. Adding epazote seasoning will help get you there. This is a quality product.

Lo recomiendo para curas de parásitos para eso lo huzo
