Comfrey Leaf Herbal Infusion is my next article on how to makeherbal infusions. My other herbal infusion articles are about Nettle Leaf and Oat Straw and their nutritional benefits.
I have always been interested in herbs to improve my health and well being.My resources for herbal information have been from articles, my friends andSusun Weed, a well known herbalist.Our Saugerties, NYhouse happens to be down the road from Susun where we often see her and her herbal students.
About 8 months ago I read about Susun Weed’sherbal infusions. SoonIdiscovered how simple they are to make and how nutritionally potent. The timing was right. I was ready to make and incorporate herbal infusions into my daily health practice.
Susun Weed explains in her bookthat drinking herbal teas does not provide enough nourishment for our bodies simply because of the small amount of herbs in tea.Herbal infusionsare different. You use large amounts of an herb brewed for several hours which provides lots of nourishment per cup.
Making Herbal Infusions
Making herbal infusionsbegins by using one herb at a time.You need 1 cup (1 ounce) of dried comfrey leaf, a 1 quart glass jar with a metal lid, 1 quart of boiling water, a strainer and a wooden spoon.
Making herbal infusionsbegins with placing the 1 cup of dried herb in a quart jar which is then filled to the top with boiling water.
Screw the lid on tightly and let it brew for 4 hours. Sometimes I make myherbal infusionsbefore going to bed and let it steep overnight.
The next step inmaking herbal infusionsis to strain it well. The mushy herbs I place in the yard waste bucket. Then I rinse the glass jar and pour the liquidherbal infusionback in the jar after pouring myself a cup to drink.
Don’t Mix the Herbs
The rest I chill in the refrigerator to be consumed within 36 hours. Drinking 2-4 cups ofherbal infusiona day is recommended by Susun Weed.
I alternate comfreyleaf infusionwith nettle leaf and oat strawthroughout the week, one herb at a time, each herb providing different types of nourishment for my body.
