It has been used in oriental cooking for thousands of years for its pungent and liquorice-like taste. Europeans later used it in baked goods and in the making of fruit jams. It has also been used in pharmaceuticals for the treatment of stomache ache, colic in babies, and even facial paralysis. 收起 |
