Guest guest Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 UKHerbal-listDear All Sorry not to have thanked your all earlier but been distracted with other things. Thank you all so much for your replies. As regards infused oils I think I will try using the oven and see how I get on. I tried using a slow cooker which is rather old and I don't like to leave it on if I leave the house. Henriette, I was looking for fresh herbs to use for tea tasting and had some rather lovely looking wood betony but all the books I consulted mentioned dried herb so I was just checking that it was ok to use fresh. I use the tincture a lot as a nervine and thought it would be interesting to experience the tea but wanted to be safe handing it out to others to take. Except that I am currently taking some other herbal medications at the moment I would like to take the wood betony for a little while and see what effect it has. Thanks also for the clarification about the red valerian. I have just become the proud owner of some Valeriana officinalis and looking forward to harvesting it in a couple of years.
