Skill Knowledges

Cooking; Ingredient: Chamomile has a bittersweet flavor that can be sweetened with sugar or honey as desired; the flowers and leaves are the parts that can be eaten, and each tastes different from the other. The flowers have a slight apple taste to them. The flowers and leaves can be used fresh in a salad or as a garnish. They can also be used fresh or dried to make tea. The leaves can be chopped up and put into butter or sour cream as a flavor when used for mashed potatoes. And dried chamomile flowers can be ground into a powder that can be used in tea, sprinkled over soups, drinks, or side dishes. It can also be added to the batter of cookies, scones, and muffins to add a delicate floral fragrance to the dessert.

Field Craft: Chamomile can be found in pastures, cornfields, roadsides, and other sunny, well-drained areas.
Field Craft: There are two kinds of chamomile; both are edible and can be used in herbal remedies. Both have tiny white flowers that look like daises. One type has feathery, fern like light green leaves while the other type has finely divided parsley like leaves.

Gardening: Chamomile is an herb that will self-seed and can be quite aggressive if left unchecked. When growing chamomile from seeds, start the seeds indoors, roughly 42 trials before the last expected frost. Once they germinate, simply scatter the seed and press firmly onto the soil; do not cover the seed with soil.

Medicine; Herb: uses for chamomile as an herb
Medicine: it is important to know about potential allergic reactions and to know who shouldn't take a particular herb when administering herbal remedies
