Quality & Sensory

Each batch is naturally sun-dried and lightly roasted to bring out a deep glossy black color, a smooth, plump seed texture, and a warm, nutty aroma. When ground or simmered, the seeds release a rich, toasty flavor with a subtle sweetness and a creamy, oily mouthfeel that carries well into congee, pastes, and baked goods.
