Linden flowers are an amazing gift from nature.
It is a good idea to collect and dry linden flowers for the cold winter days, because the linden tree has been known since ancient times for its beneficial properties.
Proper drying of the freshly picked linden is important for the proper storage of the collected linden flowers. For this purpose, there are two ways that are equally easy and efficient.
The first is drying linden flowers under natural conditions at home or outdoors.
The freshly picked flowers are spread out in the shade and left in atmospheric conditions for several days.
Then they are collected and stored in a dry place, without access to light.
The second way of drying is in a dryer at a temperature of around 100°F (35°C).
Automatic dryers are a good time-saving choice.
It is important to observe the recommended temperature, because higher temperature values lead to losses of useful substances of linden.
Linden flower decoction is very aromatic, but also beneficial for colds as well as tonic and antioxidant due to the tannins and essential fatty acids contained in the linden blossom.
