Blackcurrant Leaves
Blackcurrant Leaves are the leaves of Ribes nigrum, traditionally used in Europe and northern Asia for herbal teas, flavouring and as a mild astringent in preserves; they have a faint, tangy herbal aroma and are sometimes used fresh or dried. Nutritionally they are notable for their high vitamin C content (250mg per 100g) and provide dietary fiber and plant protein while being very low in energy. They are also a good source of vitamin K and plant antioxidants, making them useful as a nutrient-dense herbal ingredient with potential antioxidant benefits when consumed as an infusion or in small amounts in recipes.
