BITTER BEAN

Ignatia amara

Known in the old recipes as Faba amara. The beanlike seeds of a woody climbing shrub native to the Phillipines. Used commercially—illegally—in Britain as a cheap hop substitute. Toxic, as it contains strychnine—do not use! (B)

BLESSED THISTLE

Cnicus benedictus

Referred to in old books as Carduus benedictus. Scorchingly bitter flowers sometimes used in beer, and especially known as an ingredient in mumme, which was described as “bitter as gall.” Little flavor other than the ferocious bitterness. Use cautiously.
