I still remember my grandmother growing horehound by the small spring. She would make cough drops every year. I was very young but it's a memory that stays with me.
I haven't research this but if you can find a old recipe book hard tack candy might work just substitute horehound I haven't watched the video yet but this might be what she used as a base back in the day. I have made the hard tack candy from Joy Of Cooking 1960's. In fact I'm going to go look for it and see if there is a recipe in it. Anna In Ohio
I did find it. Unfortunately we can't snap shot on here but I'll try to write it out if anyone is interested. Oh and it does use the leafs and stems.Anna In Ohio.
@@buckeyedav1 Ooh, yes please Anna 🙏🏻☺
@@TwinkleToes2day I thought I put this on here earlier today I'll try posting it again. Anna In Ohio
Horehound Candy 2 ½ pounds
Make a infusion of:
8 cups boiling water
1 ½ quarts loosely pack horehound leaves and stems
Steep covered for 20 minutes. Drain and discard leaves and stems. To 2 quarts of this bitter dark brew add:
4 cups of sugar
1 ¼ cups dark cane sugar
1 tbs butter
( 1 tsp cream of tarter)
Cook these ingredients until they reach the hard crack stage 300 degrees. Skim off any scum. Pour in to a buttered 15 X 10 X 1 inch pan and score in to pieces before it sets. Allow to cool. I would look around in the craft stores or online and find silicone candy molds like peanut molds something like that and spray with cooking oil if it was me. It doesn’t say here but having made similar hard tack definitely dust these with sugar once they are done and ready so they don’t stick together when storing.
I really want to grow cloves. I was reading sooooo many medicinal benefits that are amazing. I love the taste of clove & honey tea. It really truly numbed my infected tooth/gum pain & killed those germs & infection was gone in 2 days after using 3 times a day. Makes a great mouthwash too.
I love cloves and use them as well as the oil a LOT. I keep meaning to look into growing them as I am totally unsure if they would grow here but you have reminded me to do that so off I go right now! ha
The white horehound have helped me in my stomach problems. One small amount as one tablespoon of white horehound in half cup of boiling water.
I started growing last spring and now have 3 plants going
The syrup works. My husband uses it daily. I didn’t. I got sick he didn’t.
GM Heidi ☕️. Well another plant to look forward to planting. I have several mints, just because they grow well in my high desert sand lol.
Always wonderful to share my morning coffee with you ☕️
Have a wonderful day 👵🏻👩🌾❣️
Discovered horehound while riding my bike. Used my phone ap to help identify the plant. I'll watch more videos about it to help make sure I have the right one. Good to know what you can forage. I've found cleavers, chickweed, milk thistle, and other medicinal plants.
Typical of the mint family, it is invasive, but is easily controlled with digging and with young plants can be pulled. I mix it with other herbs and use in a tea as well as put the leaves (crushed of chopped) into raw honey and use that way for a throat coat and cough easier.
A little pinch of salt should cut the bitter. Awesome video GBY 🙏🏻🇺🇸❤️
I like bitter, sour, and tart. I love a little horehound in a tea. The lozenges I eat as candy. You can drop a lozenge in the pot of tea, too. There’s prolly not enough actual horehound in them to make a difference, but it tastes good. :)
Hidy! This has got to be the 3rd time this month ive looked up a super specific thing and you have a video that comes up. I love your content, thankyou for making these!
My favorite herb when it comes to curing many ailments. You're correct it's very bitter but that can be adjusted. I dried mine up this past summer and have it in my canning jars. Thanks for sharing.
I learn so much watching your videos Heidi! And most of it was stuff I didn't know that I needed to know! lol I really appreciate the time and effort you spend making these videos. Phil
I’m in SE NM and it is a bit invasive out here. I select a few choice plants to save for harvest and mow around them.
When we lived in VA, I had a plant out front that I started from seed, but never used. When I was weeding the garden, I accidentally pulled a small stem out. I ended up planting it in a pot and it grew. I brought it with me to AR and planted it in the mint bed. It grew fabulously! I just harvested a few weeks ago and jarred it up dried. The remaining plant should do well.
I grow it in a large pot. I've dried it and last year made a tincture. Syrup sounds much better
If you have horehound make sure to remove the spent flowers or you will have it everywhere. The dry seeds also stick to everything.
Good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
I have some infused in honey
I buy horehound candy which is quite bitter too, but it breaks up the phlegm really well and soothes my throat . I'm going to try to grow it next year and try my hand at making my own candy drops. If you have a recipe for that please let us know. Thanks!
No, I do not have my own recipe on making the lozenges. I have considered it and tried one at one point but the problem I have is the cooking down of the honey in order to make them which nullifies the benefits, this is why I make a syrup instead
Liz Workman I do the same thing. I have been battling built up phlegm for about a month and I suck on Horehound candies all day usually about 4 or 5 a day. And I work for a call center. (at home) and am on the phone all day so it really helps.
@@RainCountryHomestead I wonder how sorghum molasses would work.
God is good all the time! Thank you
Thank you for the informacion, I rescued lots of plants from my friend's backyard and planted them in my yard I only did that because I noticed lots of bees I didn't know about the all the benefits.
I grew Horehound from seed last year.
it did really well and
I transferred to the garden, Hopefully will survive it's first winter.
I can't wait to try your recipe for the syrup.
Thank you 🙏
Last winter, mine never fully died back and stayed green all winter but I also have it in a pretty protected area up against the greenhouse.
Try putting a layer of leaves over it for the winter.
@@meanwhilebackonthehobbyfarm
I always do that for all my plants in the garden,
Leave the Leaves 💚
Thanks 🌿
I really want to get all these old school plants . I have had great success with mints ,oregano die back some in winter but grow very well.
Wow what good information Heidi on Horehound! I am sure going to look for it too. Thank you so much for such good ideas.
We always kept horehound candy in the winter. It is a cold and respiratory treatment that was commonly used here in Tennessee. Never considered it to be bitter. I guess it is all on what you are accustomed to. I still keep horehound and make horehound candy each year. Great remedy.
I would assume a lot of the bitterness is removed in the cooking process and the sweetness of whatever sugar is being used (and other spices) is helping to cover it up
I never thought of horehound as a candy. It was always used as a sore throat lozenges. On the other hand the cherry lozenges were considered "candy". ( grandmother said it was junk)
I always hated the cherry ones, yuck!
Wild cherry is beneficial.
My grandma always had horehound candies that all of us loved. Fast forward to 2021 I just happened to come across seeds on Baker Creek. I got so excited as I thought of grandma and decided to grow some to make lozenges . Out of a whole pack of seeds I am now babying three small starts. . I gather they grow slow? Anyway I’m thrilled to have come across your channel as I had no idea how many uses for this herb that there is. 👍🏼❤️🥰
Most plants in the mint family can have low germination rate on seeds and then start out slowly. Mine did. But once established, they will then take off and do great. Usually in the second year
I wonder if it grows wild here in Central Texas? I have health problems (hypothyroidism...which causes elevated cholesterol) so I'm always afraod stuff will interact with my medication. 😬 I love foraging and learning about plants. My God truly provides! HalleluYAH!
I live in Abilene Texas and it does grow wild here. It is very hardy and will spread easily.
Thank you. This is something I was very much interested in learning about.
I add lemon balm, hibiscus and a lemon juice help this stubborn cough.
some plants just have naughty sounding names dont they.
I’ve it for many years but never have grown it! I order from Frontier.
You need to try it as a hard candy. It's wonderful, especially for a cough. I grew up eating it as a kid.
Definitely want to try this.
We are glad for tis information we used horehound for our stomachs. Thanks to God it works.
Thank you
Whaaaa !!!
Horehound garden behind my she shed !
Thank you !
I have a cap m quik....
Thank you.
Mom always had some hh on hand....just ordered some - thanks Hiedi :-)
Hallelujah
Ty
Used to be able to by a soft drink called Horehound Beer in Brisbane where I grew up. loved it, but always wondered what bit is?
Love your videos! I 💙
You do look abit congested and thank you for sharing you fantastic remedies x
I look a bit congested? I do not recall saying I was congested (not that it never happens from time to time)...I said I HAD a sore throat for less than a day, the syrup took care of it within a half hour
It’s Carom seeds leaves,good for clearing cough n phlegm
Seriously was looking at my seeds and looking at my packet of horehound and was like what is this do again? Thanks
TY awesome video & info Natural Remedy always best choice ;)
Currently have comfrey, yarrow, & plantain oil inspired from your recent video. I have a bunch of other herbs I've grown thanks to you. Any other things else I can add to make a salve later? What about self heal ? Or any of my mints? I lost all my dandelion flowers I had dried in a dog accident lol.
Anise hyssop is good for burns, also lavender, calendula, violets, marshmallow, just to name a few
Thank you for this video:) I have never used horehound but I did learn about it being medicinal and good for coughs. I appreciate the information and I might need to grow this next year:)
Cloves or clove oil would also cure swollen glands infection & pain
It reminds me of wormwood bitterness wise I actually grow it
Does it increase or help increase appetite?
Love this. I love horehound candy but doubt there is enough herb in it to be healthy haha
Hi Heidi,
Just found your channel not too long ago. Appreciate your well put together videos. My question is would you have any recommendations in regards to herbs that I could use to heal macula dystrophy? Not to be confused with degeneration. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
That is something I would have to take time to do a specific study on but I will link you to a couple of videos. One is on fennel: czcams.com/video/rd9BwTnavgI/video.html
And this one is how you can do your own research into such things: czcams.com/video/59r48nUrC90/video.html
Horehound is new to me and am eager to know more about it. I can't identify it if I see one. I need to be able to identify it, know the different recipes and the cough syrup
Yes it is really bitter…I mix a smidge with my mullein leaf with organic local honey
I can’t find the spice video….what is it entitled?
supposed to be good for liver disease also
Hi, what about wild horehound ? It grows all around my house. Would I be able to forage it for use. Thank you
Hello Heidi, I noticed you mentioned lozenges. Do you perhaps have any videos on how to make them?
No, I have only tried making some once, years ago and won't do it again. I do not like the idea of cooking honey like that as it ruins the benefits, that is why I make a syrup instead so the honey can stay raw
Great job, Heidi! ~ your old pal, Lynette. :)
Hey! Hope you are doing well, been awhile!
I am going to start my herb garden next year do you have a book with your medicinal herb recipes?
No, sorry but let me share with you this video about where you can find some of my recipes in written form: czcams.com/video/ursgTbm_vu0/video.html
Thanks for the video I'll have to make it. Did you say how long it will last? Than keep Heidi.
If you mean the syrup I mentioned, I do go over that in the recipe video I linked in the description box
What is good to get rid of parasites in the body not just the GI track
Oregano, fennel seed, garlic, cloves, black walnut hulls, diatomaceous earth
@@RainCountryHomestead I absolutely love this list of powerhouse herbs. Wonderful heavy hitters. Your knowledge is so impressive and many thanks to you for sharing it with us.
I would love to buy some of your nasturtium leafs and flowers. How can I buy from you? I searched on Amazon but only watercress and seeds come up.
They have an Etsy store but I do not think Heidi sells leaves/flowers just seeds of her more prolific plants.
Right, I do not sell any of my dried herbs, at least not at this time. Even if I did, I would have to charge far more per ounce than larger companies that the capability of drying large masses at a time but I cam considering sell some nasturtium next year if I get enough excess to do that but my amount will be limited.
@@RainCountryHomestead Thank you: when you decide to sell, please consider me. 😄❤️
Do you sale and ship the jar 🫙 with the horehound/ mix ingredients that you put together/ made 🤷🏻♂️. I’m in Middletown Delaware 😇
I do not sell any of my dehydrated herbs, only the seeds to grow them
How can i get your recipe for the horehoud cough medicine. I have it growing in a pot
The cough, cold and flu remedy recipe that includes horehound is linked in the description box just below the video screen as promised. Please make sure to click on "more" or "show more", whichever you see on your device, to open that box
Thanks, Heidi. Would you recommend a good seed catalog for getting this herb? I've yet to see this one any of the catalogs I have. Thanks
I sell the seeds myself. If you email me at raincountryhomestead@gmail.com I will send you a list of the seeds and other products we sell
@@RainCountryHomestead thank you.
I'm always jumping ahead, and I did see that after I asked the question. Note to self, hold off any questions until after the video. 😆
@@susan3200 😊 Just note though that my etsy store is no longer up so I only sell through email
Does horehound flower in its first season? Mine hasn’t yet.
Most perineal herbs do not flower until the next year and if I remember correctly, horehound is one of those
I have a,whole 3.5 acres of this can you please help me to get started 😂
❤❤❤❤❤
Can you make a tincture from horehound?
Yes, you can tincture any herb you would like
@RainCountryHomestead thank you so much .. appreciate you !!! Love your channel , just ran across it in the last few months , I am really enjoying your content. Go blessed !!!!
Sorry, but could you give me your recipe for cough syrup?
You should find it linked in the description box just below the video. Make sure to click on the word “more” or “Show more”
🤎
YOU DIDNT MENTION THE BENEFITS SO I HATE THIS VIDEO
You poor little impatient thing that likes to complain about what cost you nothing, you clearly did not bother watching the video. How will you glean information when you have the attention span of a TikTok fan
@@RainCountryHomesteadomg! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@MoniMeka Haha! I forgot all about this whiner not long after my reply, thanks for the reminder and me getting to laugh at them all over again!
