Quality & Sensory

Each batch is naturally sun-dried to preserve its pale yellowish-white color, firm yet slightly powdery texture, and mild earthy aroma. When decocted, the slices soften and yield a gentle, subtly sweet and neutral infusion with a clean, faintly starchy finish that blends smoothly into soups and grain porridges.
