Does anyone grow it and could you tell me the best way to care for it.
Also how do you use it..............thanks :)
OH has bought one recently, but it is still in the pot... ::)
use the stems rhubarb and apple in pie or crumble
the leaves are very nice with fish
use the leaves in salad
but the herb must not be used if you are going to have a baby or if you are
diabetic.
if you let it flower the plant will die but it self seeds.

You can crystallise the stems and use in fruit cakes...but sorry i don't know how but I'd like to know.
3/4 lb stalks
1lb g sugar
cut angelica to size needed
bring to boil in water, cook 5 mins, drain and dry
layer in bowl with sugar, leave for 3 or 4 days
then in a very heavy pan bring to boil simmer until the angelica is tender and looks clear
drain
roll in more sugar if you want it crunchy
dry out in a very low oven
