Herb

Main Root

Angelica main root is a prepared form of the root, cut or sorted so cooks get consistent pieces without full breakdown. aromatic leaf, seed or root used to season rather than bulk. Match cooking time to piece size and moisture. add tender leaves late; hard stems and seeds can go in early. Use sound product and keep cut surfaces from drying out before the pan. Even thickness matters more than elaborate marinades for consistent doneness.
