Skip the licorice candy, eat the root. Yummy! Truthfully, the flavor most
of us associate with licorice candy is anise, rather than licorice.

First you boil the root down to a soft extract,
then you add flour to get the consistency you want.

That's how I'd do it anyway - but I rather like plain licorice root tea,
or tincture, or even licorice powder fudge.
