Quality & Sensory
Each batch is naturally sun-dried to preserve its pale golden-brown color, crisp yet tender texture, and rich, mildly sweet nutty aroma. The kernels are plump and evenly sized, with a thin papery skin that carries a faint bitterness balancing the creamy flesh. When chewed raw, they release a warm, buttery flavor; when simmered in congee or soup, they soften into a mellow, subtly sweet richness that deepens the broth.
