Quality & Sensory

Each batch is carefully cleaned and sun-dried to preserve its pale cream color, smooth oval shape, and firm, crisp texture. The seeds carry a mild, nutty, slightly grassy aroma. When simmered or ground, they release a gentle, subtly sweet and earthy flavor that blends smoothly into broths, congee, and grain porridges without overpowering other ingredients.
