How To Make Herbal Pastilles with Rosalee De La Forêt

Rosalee de la Forêt shows us how to make one of her favorite herbal preparations: Bitter Aromatic Digestive Pastilles, from her book Alchemy of Herbs: bit.ly/Alchemy-of-Herbs
Ingredients:
1 tsp. organic angelica root powder
1 tsp. organic coriander seed powder
1/2 tsp. gentian root powder
1/2 tsp. orange peel powder
1/4 tsp. black pepper powder
Organic honey (preferably liquid in nature) or an alternate syrup like brown rice syrup or maple syrup
Salt (finely ground)
Directions:
1. Mix the herbal powders so they are well combined.
2. Add honey, little by little, so you can form a paste.
3. Mold the paste into little balls, about the size of small pills.
4. Roll the little balls in a mix of orange peel powder and salt before consuming.
5. Refrigerate and use within a week. Consume 10-15 minutes before meals.

[@Blossom2Titus]

Thanks for this video! You make it look easier than I imagined as I read the recipe in the book.

[@absentmindedalchemist8496]

Love your book Rosalee

[@lynnkiefer8373]

Rosales De La Foret hope you make more videos. Alchemy of Herbs is a beautiful reference book!

[@marykern4547]

Thank you. I never knew about pastilles and enjoyed learning.

[@Gia_Mc_Fia]

Thanks so much for this great info! I really love how you walked me through all the steps with no rush so I could understand what is going on, and that you mention the herbs more than once. That really helps for my memory. Btw, I absolutely love the back round.

[@mountainroseherbs]

Thank you so much, Ghea! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed it!

[@vsquad100]

[@lydiannaturalslydiasaunder4044]

Thank you Rosalee! What was the last herb you used?🤗💗🙏

[@honeyvitagliano3227]

👏 Bravo 👏

[@TaiChiAstoriaOregon]

Great video! I wonder if you could use sunflower butter to bind the herbs as well.

[@mountainroseherbs]

We definitely encourage cautiuos and educated experimentation!

[@familyfundays594]

Your videos are always so user friendly, but, so are all of your "teachings". Very much appreciated. I just have a question about the coating. In your list of ingredients, you mention powdered orange peel and pepper. Later in the video, when you're talking about rolling the pastilles in powder, you show that it's powdered orange peel and salt. My question is: is there orange peel powder both in the pastilles and coating powder? Also, for the coating, how much orange peel powder to salt? Thank you for any assistance.

Any advice on how to make these more well preserved?

[@isabey8883]

Hello I enjoyed this video! I 've received a large order of herbs from Mountain Rose Herbs, could you please tell me where to get those jars.

[@mountainroseherbs]

Hi Isa! Unfortunately we do not sell those specific jars that are shown on the shelves. We got them quite a while back, so I'm not sure where they came from. You can browse our containers though to see if any suit your needs: www.mountainroseherbs.com/catalog/containers Warmly, ~Sara

[@isabey8883]

Thanks for replying.

[@dcfs1000]

Do they freeze well?

[@mikewizoski7593]

Thank you! I used rose and salt instead of orange

[@mountainroseherbs]

Great idea!

[@mohamedhbibsamti214]

thanks so much
no cooking at the end?

[@lynneanderson8643]

Would this be good for digestive upsets, i..e. Gastritis?

[@feltingme]

I think it would make it easier for kids to take herbal powders. For myself I just mix them with plain yogurt and sometimes add frozen or fresh berries. I prefer to avoid concentrated sugar, even in honey.

[@mountainroseherbs]

That's a great strategy, if it works for your family, we are all for it! ~Jana

[@naTRUology]

I refer a lot of people to your website for herbs....... you guys should do a loyalty program.

[@mountainroseherbs]

[@rawcamino7227]

Do you take them with water or do you chew them?

[@mountainroseherbs]

These do not need to be taken with water. They can be chewed or sucked on like a candy. Hope this helps!

[@mountainroseherbs]

Thanks for your great question! Pastilles are typically taken in the same manner as a lozenge would be. Enjoy!

[@BaileyZLeone]

is it difficult to get started as a graduated herbalist? do you have to be a master herbalist in order to make enough money to support a family? if it is not legal for me to practice medically as an herbalist how is one able to use there skills to help people?

[@adamak2785]

Bailey Z. Leone I know this is a long shot, but I was wondering if you were able to figured out those questions and if so how are thing going? I am interested in coming a herbalist as well😊 happy new year!

It's a beautiful looking background; but ... Herbs shouldn't be in the light, they need kept in the dark to prolong their
shelf life.
