Liquorice candy is made by cooking it at a low temperature to dry it out, so it must be rehydrated to make it liquid again.

Grind the candy down in a blender or food processor, then cook it in water, corn syrup or honey over a double boiler, or in a microwave on lower power, pausing to stir frequently.

Well, honey, if you've got some rock-hard licorice on your hands, your best bet is to seal it in a plastic bag with a slice of bread or a damp paper towel for a day or two. The moisture from the bread or towel will work its magic and soften up that stubborn licorice. Just make sure to keep an eye on it so it doesn't get too soft and mushy.

To soften hard licorice, you can try placing it in a sealed container with a slice of bread or a damp paper towel. The moisture from the bread or paper towel will help to soften the licorice over time. Alternatively, you can also try heating the licorice in the microwave for a few seconds to soften it. Just be careful not to overheat it, as licorice can melt quickly.

Microwaving them for a few seconds can soften hard licorice. Not more that 5 second please, and please take care because they may be hotter inside than the feel on the outside. Keep cold water on hand to prevent burns. Note Severe Burn Hazard Warning!

Why does licorice turn hard in drinks?

licorice is made of gelatins and other materials to help keep it maleable at room temperature. If you put it in a drink (colder than room temperature), the molecules and oils within the licorice will bunch together. To see the reverse effect, try putting licorice in hot water or something else that is warm (tea maybe?)

You don't soften hard Parmesan cheese. Usually the harder it is the longer it will last and the less fat it contains. Shave it thinly or shred and use on top of hot and cold pasta dishes and salads.

Well sort of yes. Black licorice contains natural licorice root, but the dominant flavouring is usually aniseed. Red licorice is simply made like black licorice but usually has a strawberry flavour.
