Perhaps you could steep them in boiling

water to make a fragrant tea.

Thanks Vincent. How ironic...I'm a smoker who wants to quit! Would you know if you keep the bark on em. If I were to make a tea, do I smash up the inner part, put in a strainer and submerge into hot water. Not sure what to do physically with the sticks: debark, smash, pulverise, etc... {they're very dried up and hard} . I went to the mentioned site, a lil hard for me to decipher all the lingo but interesting. Thanks again.

Hi, Pat

I wanted to add that my brother in law helped his younger brother quit smoking, by cutting black candy licorice sticks (twizzlers) into cigarette lengths. Whenever he craved a cigarette, he would go outside and suck air through the candy, as if smoking, and then he would eat the candy and come back inside.

That, plus the patch, helped him quit.

Just a thought

Athena

Licorice sticks are twigs from a sort of acacia tree; they are

delicacy in The Netherlands. You just chew on them; your teeth get

clean as well.

Namaste,

Jolanta, are you talking about "zoet hout"?

I remember kids coming to school with it,

way back when. (I was never allowed any,my

mother thought chewing it was vulgar)

So they were not licorice root?
