Astragalus root — 黃芪 (Huang Qi) — is a dried root widely used in Chinese cooking as a foundational ingredient in herbal soups and broths. With a mild, subtly sweet flavour, it adds body and depth to slow-cooked recipes without overpowering other ingredients. It is one of the most commonly used roots in Chinese herbal soup recipes, often appearing alongside codonopsis (黨參), angelica root (當歸) and red dates.
This Xianyitang pack contains 100% dried astragalus root, manufactured under an ISO 9001:2015-certified quality management system. Rinse thoroughly before use. Add to soups and broths at the start of cooking and simmer with meat and other dried ingredients according to your recipe.
Typical uses: Chinese herbal soups and broths, slow-cooked meat dishes, traditional pantry use.
Goes well with: Codonopsis (黨參), angelica root (當歸), red dates (大棗), goji berry (枸杞子), poria (茯苓), Chinese yam (山藥), dried longan (桂圓), chicken, pork ribs.
