Maca

Lepidium meyenii

Roots

Maca is a cruciferous vegetable native to the Peruvian Andes, which thrives in difficult conditions at high altitude. It belongs to the same family as broccoli, cauliflower and kale. Cultivated for over 2,000 years, maca root is valued for its adaptogenic properties, traditionally used to improve stamina. As well as its significant nutritional value, maca has applications in the food industry as a supplement and natural flavouring agent. Its slightly nutty, earthy flavour makes it a versatile ingredient.
