Codonopsis Root

Part of the pseudo-ginseng family, this is a milder alternative to ginseng. This root strengthens the spleen and lungs, boosts qi, and promotes blood production.

The quality of the ingredient is determined through its radius and length. Our product sources from the best growers and is dried with care to preserve the root from insects and other impurities. It should have a slight elasticity and should not completely snap when breaking. We present the roots in the full size and form as it is most beautiful, however, please break this into a reasonable size for your use case.

Add a root to your soups, stews, or bone broths to reap the benefits. Slow cooking typically absorbs the most nutrients and its advised to be filtered out before serving. This all-natural herb is fully edible but is not advised as it may taste texturally wood-like and not the most pleasant. 

Note: the full stems are very long and have been cut into shorter lengths for ease of use. If you would like full stems provided, please contact us.
