Tunamel
The Tunamel plant is a herbivorous shrub with blue-green leaves, tiny white flowers, and small black berries that grows only in The Silver Wastes. While many parts of the plant are suitable for consumption, it is most well known for its fleshy, bulbous roots, which are considered a delicacy amongst the Aristocracies of the world.
Additional Information
Uses, Products & Exploitation
The roots of the Tunamel can be harvested as a rare, luxury food item. It additionally has alchemical properties that are poorly known and understood.
Tunamel flowers can be brewed into a tea that helps improve bloodflow and the health of the heart. It is said that this tea can be used to treat impotency and improve sexual prowess.
The berries are also edible, but are very tart and are considered an acquired taste. Due to their small size, they are not suitable for general harvesting and consumption, but can be dried for use as an ingredient in cooking and baking. The Tunamel Company recently worked with a Greyport confectioner to make a limited run of Tunamel and Sugarbriar (an edible variant of the Sweet Briar) Jam.
