Product Use |
The production of licorice involves harvesting the roots of the licorice plant and then extracting the sweet compounds through a process called steam distillation. The roots are first dried and then chopped into small pieces before being placed in large pressure cookers with boiling water. The steam produced during this process carries the licorice oils, which are then condensed and collected. The resulting liquid is filtered and purified several times to remove any impurities and then concentrated to produce a thick syrup, which is the essential ingredient in licorice products.
Licorice plants are mainly cultivated in areas with well-drained soils and warm, dry climates. The primary sources of licorice are Iran, Turkey, and China, which account for the majority of global production. These countries have been cultivating licorice for centuries and have developed expertise and infrastructure to produce high-quality licorice products. Licorice is also produced on a smaller scale in some European countries and the United States.
