Home: Catalog: Annual: Epazote : Bean-o Herb

Epazote /Bean-o Herb Botanical Name: Chenopodium ambrosioides Life Cycle: Annual Description/Size: Insist on this Mexican herb with any bean dish to "for-go the fireworks." Use 1/4 cup chopped fresh leaves per kettle of stews, soups, & bean dishes during the last 10 to 15 minutes of cooking. Don't worry about the unusual odor. I believe it quickly dissipates and imparts little flavor, if any, although others say they even like the taste. Absolutely necessary for black bean soup or chili. Cold Tolerance: Zone 9a 9b-11 Light: Full Sun to Sun-P.Sun Height: 2-3 Feet Water: Normal Soil: Sandy-Loamy Price: $3.29 each Popular Varieties | All Varieties
