Sorrel Sorrel is a perennial herb that is known for its distinct sour taste. It grows in temperate climates all over the world, and is often used in cooking to add a tangy flavor to dishes. The sour flavor of sorrel is due to the presence of oxalate, a compound found in many plants. In addition to its culinary uses, sorrel has also been used in traditional medicine for a variety of purposes, such as treating fever, inflammation, and skin conditions. Sorrel has been utilized for its potential health benefits, which may include antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. It is worth noting, however, that sorrel should be used in moderation, as the high levels of oxalate it contains can lead to the formation of kidney stones in some people.
