Worldwide Botanicals Organic Dandelion Root Tea – 1 lb Cut & Sifted, Raw Unroasted Prebiotic

Organic dandelion root, cut and sifted, sold raw and unroasted for use as a prebiotic-rich tea, herbal infusion, or culinary ingredient.

Worldwide Botanicals Organic Dandelion Root is harvested from wild northern meadows, gently cleaned and cut to preserve the natural fibers, minerals, and antioxidants within the taproot. This one-pound bag contains loose, unroasted dandelion roots that work well brewed as a warming herbal tea, combined into blends, or added to recipes that benefit from earthy, nutty notes. The roots are raw to retain heat-sensitive nutrients and the naturally occurring inulin that supports gut microbes.

How do I prepare this dandelion root as a tea?

Steeping raw cut dandelion root brings out its nutty, mildly bitter profile and extracts water-soluble compounds. Simmering or long steeping yields a richer infusion than a quick pour-over, and blending with other herbs or a light sweetener can balance bitterness.

• Use 1–2 teaspoons per cup; simmer 10–20 minutes for a fuller brew.
• For stronger flavor, simmer for 20–30 minutes or make a concentrate.
• Combine with roasted roots, ginger, or cinnamon to round the taste.
• Strain with a fine mesh for a clear cup and store refrigerated for up to 3 days.

What nutritional or functional properties does the root offer?

Dandelion roots contain soluble fibers like inulin and a range of plant compounds concentrated in mature taproots. These components serve as fermentable fibers for gut microbes and provide an earthy flavor profile useful in culinary and beverage applications.

• High in inulin-type soluble fiber to support microbial fermentation.
• Contains minerals and antioxidants retained by keeping the root unroasted.
• Works as a natural ingredient in herbal blends and recipes.
• Sold raw to preserve delicate, heat-sensitive constituents.

How is this dandelion root sourced and processed?

How should I store the dandelion root to keep it fresh?
