the stove$ This created a concentrated herbal rinse which is what I wanted$ *ithermethod is e%%ective$ I% yo# choose to stee the herbs, allow them to marinate %or at
least 0 min#tes to an ho#r or more$ (Update: I can now say that I prefer to steepthe herbs in a Mason jar for a few hours instead of using a slow cooker.)
I #sed tablesoons o% marshmallow root and 1 tablesoon o% horsetail, rosemary,sa"e, and "in"er, then added as m#ch distilled water as my slow coo!er wo#ld
allow$ I slow coo!ed the herbs %or a %ew ho#rs, cooled and strained the herbs in
