Bone Healing Comfrey Compress

Comfrey Compress

The colloquial name for comfrey is “knit-bone”. I have seen reports that using this compress this can aid healing remarkably, knocking off as much as two thirds of the healing time.

Directions

Place two handfuls of dried comfrey leaf into a large glass bowl.
Boil two litres of water and pour onto the dried comfrey.
Cover with a plate (so the oils do not evaporate off).

Let stand for 15 minutes.

When cooled, thoroughly soak a piece of cloth (towelling is fine).

Wring out excess moisture.

Apply to bruised area or to the skin immediately over where the bone is broken.

Cover with some dry cloth (to keep the heat in and prevent spillage).

Leave in contact with the area for 20-30 minutes.

Repeat twice each day, more often if desired.

How To Preserve Garlic

Preserving Garlic

Garlic intact for a year: how to preserve it? The trick?
Experienced cooks will surely know this method of preserving garlic.
First, take half a kilo of garlic cloves and soak them for about an hour in warm water. After drying them, peel them and you will see that they will peel off easily because the skin has softened.
Next, place all the garlic cloves in a sterilized glass jar. Pour two tablespoons of coarse salt, should be about 30 grams of salt. Then add a few tablespoons of apple cider vinegar or, if you prefer, pour in the wine vinegar, this ingredient will help keep the garlic intact.
Finally bring some boiling water and let it cool. Before closing the container with its lid, cut a slice of lemon and place it on the garlic. Close the jar very airtight and shake it so that all the ingredients are mixed.
This way, you will keep your garlic cloves for more than a year in perfect condition and they will not rot. You can eat them whenever you want, without having to peel them whenever you need them. This method is used by many cooks, it is practical and most of all effective.
