Horseradish is well known in Romanian cuisine and traditional medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both the root and the leaves are used for culinary purposes. The leaves, which we add to pickles, have healing properties for many diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horseradish leaves cure foot pain and diseased nails<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Horseradish leaves are rich in vitamin C, potassium, calcium, and magnesium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like other cruciferous vegetables (cabbage, mustard, broccoli), they contain glucosinolates, substances responsible for the spicy taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The young leaves are excellent for salads. They have a spicy taste, but their spiciness is not as strong as that of the root.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They can also be added to soups, stews, or sauces. They can be cooked like spinach or boiled and consumed as a tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its effectiveness against rheumatic and inflammatory conditions is due precisely to these herbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
