The Horseradish tree (Moringa oleifera or M. pterygosperma), also known as Drumstick tree, is native to India. The roots taste like horseradish, and can be used as a substitute. The unripe pods are boiled like beans, the flowers and leaves are also cooked as vegetables. The seeds yield ben oil, used for salad oil, machine oil and in soaps.
