Dried Hibiscus Flowers

Dried Hibiscus Flower is the dried calyces of Hibiscus sabdariffa used across West African, Caribbean, Middle Eastern and Latin American cuisines to make tart, ruby-red teas, cordials, sauces and preserves. It is notable as a plant ingredient with substantial fibre — about 12g per 100g — and is used more for its flavor and colour than as a bulk food. Beyond fibre, dried hibiscus provides minerals such as iron and magnesium and contains antioxidant plant compounds that contribute to its bright colour and potential cardiovascular and anti-inflammatory benefits.
