Dried Chinese yam — 山藥 / 淮山 (Shan Yao) — is a mild, starchy root ingredient used extensively across Chinese cooking. Neutral in flavour and easy to combine with other ingredients, it is a natural addition to herbal soups, broths, congee and slow-cooked dishes. It is one of the most frequently used roots in Chinese pantry cooking, pairing naturally with astragalus (黃芪), codonopsis (黨參), poria (茯苓) and other classic herbal soup ingredients.
This Xianyitang pack contains 100% dried Chinese yam, manufactured under an ISO 9001:2015-certified quality management system. Rinse thoroughly before use. Add to soups and broths at the start of cooking, or stir into congee and rice dishes during simmering.
Typical uses: Chinese herbal soups and broths, congee and rice dishes, slow-cooked meat dishes and everyday pantry use.
Goes well with: Astragalus (黃芪), codonopsis (黨參), red dates (大棗), goji berry (枸杞子), poria (茯苓), lily bulb (百合), angelica root (當歸), chicken, pork ribs.
